Back to School - Preventing homework stress

Homework! Is there anything that causes more battles at the kitchen table?  

Whether you are for or against it, it can be a pain for kids and for parents, amidst the juggle of after school activities,  struggles with learning, even just good old after-school burnout.  

Maggie Dent chats to Maria Cook, the founding principal of Honeywood Primary School in Perth, about how to manage homework if your kids are getting it, and why you shouldn’t worry if they are not! 

The advice provided in this podcast is general in nature and does not take into account your personal situation. If you require further advice specific to your needs, please consult a professional.
