I have a very intelligent DS who is in top set for every subject. But the boy is so lazy and we fight EVERY day about him completing his homework and doing his revision. I would have thought that by Y9, a child would be in control of their own schedule and understand that work comes before play, but I am still producing revision timetables and checking whether his homework has been done on time (it is all set online and parents have access). What he produces seems to be good as he gets good marks (I don't check his work), but its the motivation that I struggle with and I am fed up with nagging him. I have tried leaving him to get on with it, and he did nothing. I am so worried about year 10 when it gets really serious.
