How Much HOMEWORK Can Be Given to Students in Germany?

Late last September I attended a meeting of parents and teachers held at the beginning of the semester.

This meeting is known as "Elternabend" (from eltern words: parents, and abend: night). Elternabends are always held at night, generally starting at 19:30 or 20:00.

In addition to the homeroom teacher, all the teachers who taught maple in that semester were also present to briefly explain the outline of their program and the assessment count (what percentage are written and oral).

The German maple teacher finished speaking and let the parents of the students ask questions or other things.

A mother raised a hand and asked, "Is it possible for her child to be given more homework?" A question that provoked the smiles of the parents and teachers present.

According to this mother, her son is very quick to do his homework and (he says) his son needs to do more homework.

The maple teacher explained, for him, the homework given was enough, not much and not a little bit. He also doesn't want to give homework unequally to his students.

How important homework is for students

Students are given tasks by the teacher certainly with a good purpose. This task is mandatory for students to complete. Parents are not allowed to exempt their child from the obligations given by the teacher.

If parents feel that the homework given is too much and burdens their child, then parents should speak directly to the teacher who teaches.

Actually, we realize that the homework given by the teacher is important. By doing homework, students will repeat and deepen the lessons they have just received from school.

Students will also be encouraged to work better and take responsibility for the assigned tasks. This will train students to develop independently.

There are restrictions on PR in German schools

When my daughter was in elementary school, I almost always accompanied her while doing homework, especially in the early years. I used to make it a habit for my son to do homework after school, not at night before going to bed.

At that time, my son's school was at the German School in Shanghai-China. The subject ended as usual around 13 o'clock. A break of about 1 hour for lunch is carried out in the school cafeteria, after which the extracurriculars are continued at school. My son returned home around 15 o'clock.

There was an afternoon activity that my son did, it was also at his whim. Some I remember him taking piano lessons, tennis, and painting. The three were followed in turn.

Other lessons related to school lessons I never proposed to do.

(Generally, children in Germany do after-school activities only those related to hobbies.)

I tell the child to provide free time at least one day a week (this is outside the weekend).

In her empty time I freed my daughter to play with her schoolmates who lived around our house. They usually ride shared bicycles around the complex or take turns visiting and playing.

At this time my son is in high school, his school time is getting denser and denser. Three days a week his school hours ended at 3:30 p.m. (school started at 7:50).

My daughter didn't take any tutoring outside of school. She chose to spend her time with her friend after school and occasionally went out to work out at the gym.

What is the rule according to the law?

In Germany, education is a state affair. So the rules of one state and another are likely to have a slight difference, although not too big.

Each state has its own government, headed by the Ministerpräsident (prime minister) and several ministers including the Minister of Education.

Nevertheless, there remained ministries for the entire German state, with the designation Bundesminister (Federal Minister).

For example, bundesministerium für Bildung und Forschung (Federal Ministry for Education and Research)

How much homework a teacher can give to students, the rules are almost the same. In principle, the homework assigned by the teacher should be reasonable and not excessive, as well as in accordance with the age of the student. PR for holidays and weekends is not allowed.

In general, Hausaufgaben or PR for pupils per day is allowed to spend a maximum of time as follows;

Elementary school:
grades 1 and 2 maximum 30 minutes
grade 3 and 4 to 60 minutes

High school:
grades 5 and 6 maximum 90 minutes
starting grade 7 about 120 minutes

PR cannot be rated

The teacher has the right to check the tasks performed by his student. However, homework should not be graded. This rule uniformly applies in all states.

With homework checks students will be motivated to do their assignments and not think that they are in vain doing homework. For students who do not work on the task may receive consequences, but not punishment.

Hopefully, all children can learn happily and responsibly.
