Morphology
The meaning 'to hand in or present assignments' is directly and transparently derived from combining 'submit' (to hand over for review) with 'homework' (tasks assigned to students), so a B1 learner who knows both words can readily infer the MWE. This is a standard verb + noun classroom collocation that follows common compositional patterns and is cross-linguistically familiar in educational contexts.
Etymology
Submit homework comes from the simple act of giving your work to the person in charge. To submit means to hand something over, so when you give your homework to a teacher you are handing it in to be checked and 'for grading'.
