I posted recently about my Year 10 dd who seems to have very little homework at the moment.
We have just had another row about work in general
I spoke to the HOY who went over what dd should have had during that fortnight. Dd more or less agreed. HOY said she should be doing 1.5/2 hours per night. I reminded dd that even if she is set less than that she should be revising/going over work or using online resources such as My Maths (her weak subject).
I told dd I would try and stop nagging her and trust her a bit more. However....in the last week she has done very little work again. She gets home late after CCF on Fridays so no work. Saturday - nothing. Sunday - she did some but not sure how much. Last night - nothing or very little. Tonight - it got to 9.15 and she had done nothing.
I don't want to be the sort of parent who's always nagging about homework But on the other hand, I really believe success at GCSE is about hard work and I don't want her to not fulfil her potential.
Parents' night is coming up in a few weeks time. Maybe I should lay off her completely until then and see what her teachers say...?
Feeling like a rubbish parent at the moment
