England captain David Beckham has admitted that he finds six-year-old son Brooklyn's homework too tough to tackle.
In an interview for the Mail On Sunday's Live magazine, he said he has to turn to wife Victoria for help with Brooklyn's maths.
"Their homework is so hard these days," said the soccer star.
"It's done totally differently to what I was teached when I was at school."
He said that when Brooklyn turned to him for help recently, "I was like, 'Oh my God, I can't do this'".
Brooklyn, who will be seven next month, attends the exclusive £12,000-a-term British school Runnymede College in Madrid.
Children are only admitted after passing an IQ test and the school prides itself on stretching its pupils.
Beckham also admitted that he did not have a pre-match "lucky" routine - because he would not be able to remember it.
Key-stage tests include questions such as subtracting 11 from 50.
Another typical homework question for his age group is working out the change from 50p after buying a pencil costing 24p and an eraser priced at 7p.
Beckham's intellectual prowess has been ridiculed by the Press for years.
