Studies have identified some of the key factors affecting the completion of homework in the process of learning in schools. Schools and teachers often struggle motivating the school children in completing their homework at a stipulated time. This study was aimed at investigating some of the factors affecting the completion of home work by the students in Bhutan in mathematics. This study employed quantitative methodology and administered survey questionnaire among 79 students from classes VII to X randomly in one of the Middle Secondary Schools in Bhutan. Majority of the students (n=68, 96%) reported that they were too tired to work on their assignment after a hectic day’s schedule followed by (n=66, 83.5%) lack of parental care. The study concludes that students are either overloaded or lacked motivation given no parental care. The study recommends proper planning of school activities and encourage active parental involvement in motivating students to complete their homework. Further studies involving larger number of students and schools in Bhutan would help formulate better homework management policy in motivating the school children in completing their homework for better learning.
