Leaving secondary school dc to get on with school work?

Two dc, year 8 and year 10. I do wake them up around 9ish but after breakfast I take their phones then direct them to their rooms and they start the work school has set. They are following their timetable so I know what subjects they are doing but basically just leave them to it. This was fine until yesterday I got a few messages from friends saying how tiring home schooling is, and then other mums posted the odd school related thing their dc have done on Facebook. Should I be more involved? They assure me they are doing the work and when I have walked in they are on the school website not gaming. I just feel guilty now.

My 8 year old logs on and does the work herself. The 13 year old is left to do hers.
