Parent should constantly be alert and look out for signs of burnout relating to homework: constant frustration, diminished interest in academics, and loss of motivation. Also, parents should be prepared to talk to teachers if they feel a need to. Here are some suggestions on steps that parents need to take.

Do the research. Parents could check their kid’s school’s website and see if there’s a homework policy up there and whether your kid’s assignments are excessive, suggests the principal at the best IB school in Mumbai. Always keep record of the amount of assignments and homework they gat and how long it takes them to finish it.

Consult with the other parents. In case parents believe that a specific homework is just too hard, they may set an email to other parents asking them if they agree with it, and suggest that they let the teachers know about it, if they think so.

Speak to teacher privately. Approach your kid’s teacher in a nonconfrontational and cooperative manner. If parents receive an unsympathetic reply or the teachers assures that the homework are within the school police guidelines, then parents may try saying, ‘but it is not working for my kid,’ suggests the student’s counselor at the best school in Mumbai.

Contact the school board. Parents should first attend the parent’s association meeting, asking other parents to take part in a homework survey, before contacting the school board. The go to the board, along with the survey and get your issue on agenda.
