Who hates homework more – you or your kids? Why some experts say it's a waste of time...



Could all that homework you did growing up have been a waste of time? 

Some experts say yes! According to Sydney University’s Professor Richard Walker, research has found that primary school homework offers no real benefit – and only limited results in junior high school students. 

Senior students in years 11 and 12 benefit the most from homework. Dr. Walker says the research also found, in countries where they spend more time on homework, the achievement results are actually lower.
