## See it at a glance <a href="#task-main" id="task-main"></a>

1. Open the **Homework** page.

   → At the top: the student's name, class and roll.
2. Look at the first card.

   → Its heading is the soonest due day: **Due today**, **Due tomorrow**, or **Due** with a date.
3. Read each task in the card.

   → The subject, then the task's title in bold, then the teacher's note if there is one, then **Given on** with a date.
4. Scroll down for the later due days. Each day has its own card.

> **Remember:** "Today" is the school's day, not your phone's. Homework leaves this page once its due day has passed.

***

## How to know you are looking at the right thing <a href="#confirm" id="confirm"></a>

At the top you see the student's name, class and roll, then one card per due day, soonest first. If the name at the top is your child, you are on the right page. With more than one child, check the name before reading the tasks.

***

## Other situations <a href="#other" id="other"></a>

### More than one child <a href="#task-child" id="task-child"></a>

If more than one child is linked, **Choose a student** appears at the top. Tap the name of the child whose homework you want. With one child, this part does not appear.

### From the first page <a href="#task-card" id="task-card"></a>

The [**Overview**](/schoolmanagerp-docs/en/overview.md) page has a **Today's homework** card with the next few tasks that are due, for all your children together. Tap **All homework** to open this page.

### Texts about homework <a href="#task-texts" id="task-texts"></a>

If the school has homework texts switched on, you get an SMS when your child is given new homework. You also get one when the teacher moves the due date, or withdraws the homework or gives it to another section or student. A withdrawn task leaves this page and does not need to be handed in. If the teacher switches it back on, you get a text with its due date and it shows here again. The page always shows the latest due date.
