Headcannon time - Homeschooled Peter Parker
Okay, but like, can you imagine? Peter’s tired after protecting his city every night and is falling asleep in classes so his grades start falling. Not really, not his actual grades, the his participation grades which are always stupidly weighted. Plus he’s been missing a ton of classes and whole days out when he gets called away on Important Avengers Work or just Normal But Still Important New York City Protection Work. And school just won’t stand for that.
To top it all off, poor lil spidey-boy’s been getting bullied. And while he’s a big boy and can handle it pretty well, he’s still human and a teen and getting called Penis Parker all day just gets annoying when combined with PILES of homework and catchup work, asshole teachers breathing down his neck, and poor grades because he’s not participating to the asshat teachers’ liking starts taking its toll. 
And Tony knows. And he knows he’s partly responsible. Give a kid a suit and he’s gonna want to go out and protect his city. He can’t ask him to stop going out. Give a kid an Honorary Avenger’s Card and he has to go where the Avenger’s go most of the time. Only a true asshole would revoke that.
And so Tony pulls out the big guns. Peter B. Parker is getting homeschooled. And, who’s more freaking qualified than a bona-fide genius and his super genius friends? Not that they really need so many teachers. Homeschooling isn’t getting privately tutored by fellow Avengers. Peter is as smart as they come, and teaches himself most of what he needs to know acoording to state standards. Science IS done with Bruce, though, if it’s something like chemistry or physics and they want to get down and nerdy with it and create some cool and dangerous stuffs. Tony helps... if he’s allowed. 
And who better to teach history than people who have gone through it themselves? Sure, Peter plugs away at his textbooks and tests, but when he has to write a report with citations who better to go to than Captain freaking America Steve Rogers for facts about WWII? And of course, Bucky’s right there giving him the “real facts.” Although... MLA citing two avengers is a bit... tricky.
And it gives Peter more time to do what he likes, and not just go out protecting. He has time for martial arts and training and sparring and battle practice. He expiramented with art a little bit. Instruments. Dabbled in a couple different languages. Of course, not everything stuck with him. The acoustic guitar has become a coathanger and the small engine repair kit wasn’t as interesting as it had looked before.
It also lets him hang out more with his mentor and learn more electric work, programming, inventing, engineering stuffs, and all that fun stuff Tony adores and Peter wants to learn. It’s the best of both worlds, of all worlds. And better still, PETER CAN NAP IF HE NEEDS TO. And do school in his pajamas, which is fucking awesome. 
But seriously, breaking the wall here and honestly asking, why isn’t Peter being homeschooled by Tony Stark???????????????
