Homework
What if I get too much homework?
Lots of Year 6 pupils worry that secondary school will mean hours and hours of homework every night.
The truth is that homework is usually set to help you practise what you've learned in lessons. You'll quickly get into a routine, and teachers will explain what they expect.
