Few students like it, but homework is an important part of middle school life in the UK. The UK has these government rules for homework:Years 7 and 8 (ages 11 to 13):45 to 90 minutes per day;Year 9(ages 14 to 15):1 to 2 hours a day.
Today, many homework tasks are done on a computer—for example, preparing PPT, using the internet, or doing online tasks. So schools are usually open before and after normal hours. That way, students without computers or the internet at home can use the schools’ facilities(设施).
Sometimes students are given “extended(拓展的) learning tasks”. That means they need to do more research and analysis, such as when working on a history or art project. But however big the task is, teachers will always give feedback(反馈). They help students find areas where they can improve.
Some schools send students home with a homework diary. They encourage parents to check on their children’s progress. Other schools have a website for parents to track their children’s performance every day.
Sadly, not every parent takes that much interest. In a 2011 survey of 1,000 students aged 11 to 18, over one in ten said that they did not have space at home to do homework.
Almost 15 per cent said that their family did not support them enough.
