These are fundamentally feel good policies that have little basis in reality. The people supporting this are doing their best to make it seem academically rigorous. But they’re lacking perspective and would be laughed out of any serious conversation in other countries, where it just wouldn’t make sense to enable undisciplined students or inflate grades with unlimited retakes of tests. That said - I do think homework need to be rethought. It’s not appropriate for schools to take up hours of the day and then for them to take away the remaining limited time with their parents and family at home. Schools need to do the job of educating students during school hours. Children need family time and play time too.
