Position Paper
every students

In academic situation of every students does homeworks are helpful to


the study and learning experiences of all students?

As a student who's aiming a good self experience of studying with hope


consist of perseverance i believe that this issue regarding with issue
"Removing homeworks in academic of every students". I am agree on removing
homeworks, for this is not helping students anymore. In fact doing homeworks
are not relevant for students like me who are so stressed out. I also observed that
giving and doing homeworks is just a waste of time in our new normal situation.
So many students are being busy at home, doing household chores and some are
working, too. This reasons that we, students can't give enough time to do our
homeworks.

Aside from that, i honestly saying that me, my self is not capable on doing
homeworks anymore. Because after the tiring day being in school, doing some
activities in ourclassroom. Walking homeward, I coudn't contain any longer and
found my self sleeping immediately.

I am not against of how teachers want us to study at home but honestly doing
home works is not giving us any learnings anymore but stress on thinking how
would we going to do our homeworks. We are mentally bothered and physically
tired of doing all this things out of the schooll campus. Our family needs us too
in our house, we need enough time sleep and be stable mentally.

DepEd supports proposed no-homework
policy

JANELLA PARIS

MANILA, Philippines – The Department of Education (DepEd) has expressed its support for the no-
homework policy bills proposed by lawmakers at the House of Representatives. 

DepEd, in a statement released on Wednesday, August 28, said the measures would “enable learners to
have more quality time with their parents, family, and friends by limiting the homework [and] assignment
to a reasonable quantity on school days and by eliminating the same during weekends.” It said the policy
would allow students to “find balance between their academic development and personal growth by
having ample time for enjoyable activities with family.”House Deputy Speaker Evelina Escudero and
Quezon City Representative Alfred Vargas filed separate bills in August. Escudero filed House Bill (HB)
No. 3611, which seeks to remove homework as a requirement and have Kinder to Grade 12 students do
academic activities solely within school premises.

“Homework assignments can deprive students and parents [of] precious quality time for rest, relaxation,
and interaction after schools hours and even on weekend,” the bill’s explanatory note reads.The bill also
seeks to prohibit students from taking textbooks home in order to “lighten the physical burden of
schoolchildren,” who, Escudero said, often have to carry heavy bags due to schoolwork that has to be
done beyond the school. This will apply to Kinder to Grade 6 students. 

Vargas filed HB No. 3883, which seeks to eliminate homework on weekends for all elementary and high
school students. This is so that students can “enjoy their free time from the precisions of school during
weekends and to be able to have a quality time with their family and friends.”  

Vargas, in his proposal, also cited a 2018 study that featured discussions on a similar policy in a public
school in Western Cape province in South Africa. Vargas said scholars in South Africa had argued “that
homework is a burden for children and parents,” has caused the decline of family time, and even
undermines learning interest. HB 3883 seeks to “promote and protect the physical, moral, spiritual,
intellectual, and social well-being of the youth.”

While DepEd welcomed the proposals, teachers groups have slammed the proposed measures. The
Alliance of Concerned Teachers (ACT) in a statement told Congress to instead focus on reviewing the K
to 12 curriculum.

“We are not issuing homework to burden our students. It is demanded of us by the K to 12 program, so
much [so] that our performance evaluation system ensures its implementation,” said ACT national
chairperson Joselyn Martinez. 

Teacher’s Dignity Coalition said: “Our teachers are trained educators. We know the value of homework.
It’s about discipline, responsibility, and continuity of learning.” – Rappler.com
