Just out of curiosity, what are the average school hours these days, for ages of around 7 up to 16? And do they still give out homework?
I ask because we have some particularly noisy/irritating/annoying kids around here who I'm pretty sure do attend school, but seem to be home at very odd times.
When I were a lad (long time ago, I know), school hours ran from about 8:45 am until 4:40pm (primary school), with one 15-minute break in the morning, another in the afternoon, and an hour and a half for lunch.
Hours seemed to get shorter as I went through the school system, with shorter lunches, and starting at 9:00am and finishing at about 3:30pm.
These kids seem to be home before 3:00pm, because they're out playing (or rather, being a damn nuisance) from about 3:30 onwards until it gets dark - so either they don't get homework, or just don't do it.

But yeah, once you get past year 7 you kinda forget the homework and do it either very late or night or very early in the morning. Or not at all.
