Our school has iffy SAT results and not that much h-work...

DS y3 h-work sheet says "Please help your child as much as you think they need to get the homework done". So that answers title Q.
If I didn't hassle DS, he would never do it.
DD in Y1 might choose to do bits and pieces on her own, very occasionally, without pressure from me.
I could do without the battle zone, though.
