    I am a primary teacher and am looking at developing something to help parents at home. I am just wondering what would be most beneficial for parents? What areas do you find tricky? What would you find most useful? What class level is your child in?

    I don't understand what you mean - you want to develop something to help me at home? Could you give an example of what you are thinking either parents might need or what you have that they might find useful?

    The only thing I really find tricky at the moment is remembering to get the homework done! I don’t know could anybody help me with that!

    Our school went very light on homework this year when they went back and I was really glad of it - it's been a tough year for them too. Instead they invested in a fair bit of sports equipment and had them out doing various sports rain or shine.

    That's far better for them and their mental health until life goes back to some semblance of normality. Academically they'll catch up fine as they are all in the same boat.
