What a sensible teacher!

DD felt much the same about homework in Year 1. Thankfully her teacher agreed that we shouldn't push it, if it was becoming an issue.

Suddenly, in Year 2, she's quite happy to do it. Don't know what's changed - maybe she's just matured enough to have the energy. So glad we didn't press the issue last year.
