Home Education Information & Links

A number of parents in the UK now choose or are forced into educating their children at home.

Below are a few links to places where you can find information to help with all sorts of aspects to home educating your children.

Home Education Advisory Service

"The Home Education Advisory service is a registered charity that gives advice, information and support to parents who are educating their children at home.

The Satellite School

If you are home schooling in the UK, it is possible to get your LEA to fund The Satellite School. Note the word "possible", as it is not necessarily easy and varies between LEA's, but then nothing involving an LEA is ever easy, well not the ones we've come across anyway. Here's what The Satellite School say about themselves..... "If you're a parent, or a professional involved with children who are not receiving a full-time school education then you'll be interested in Satellite School's new and proven solution to their educational problems. We offer a full-time education, following the UK National Curriculum, for the chronic sick (including ME/CFS sufferers), pupils recovering from illness/injury, special needs, school-phobics, excluded pupils, and children whose parents prefer home education."
