Should homework in primary school be a thing?

Juggling work, pick up and drop-offs, lunchboxes, extra-curricula activities, dinner, bath and bedtime when your child starts school, is a lot! Then throw homework in the mix and it feels like there’s just not enough minutes in the day. By the time you get home, cook dinner, eat, and get ready for bed, where is the time to fit it in? Sarah and Mel talk about whether or not homework is even needed in primary school and how to manage that juggle.
