I think the 2nd most stressful thing in a students life is homework (exams being the first). Some schoolchildren are more stressed than adults with jobs and partners. We are excluding core subjects and subjects you choose for GCSE because you should revise, but we don't think schools should be able to set homework for other classes. It is unnecessary stress and work, pointless when you know what you want to do in life.
