Alison Hammond says she 'doesn't think homework is necessary' as she discusses son's dyslexia
Alison Hammond has said she doesn't feel homework is "necessary" and has been "no benefit" to her son who is dyslexic. In Friday's This Morning, hosts Alison and Dermot O'Leary were speaking to broadcaster Gyles Brandreth and Dragon's Den star Deborah Meadon about homework after Professor Robert Winston said that it was "ruining family life".TV star Alison was in total agreement, as she said: "It actually causes a lot of stress on the family." One of Professor Winston's complaints was that homework stopped children from pursuing hobbies, which is something else that Alison could relate to.
