upport for Home-Educating Families
Given the manifest advantages of home-education and the government’s commitment to excellence in education it might be supposed that home-schooling families would receive generous support from the state but sadly this is not the case.
Homeschoolers do not get free computers, they do not receive a book allowance, they do not get special tax incentives to encourage them to stay at home with their children, they are not given subsidized travel on public transport, there are no well-equipped, well-staffed community centers dedicated for their use so that they can supplement work done at home with specialist lessons in another setting. Perhaps all these things will come in the future – when parents demand that a real partnership be created between the state and private individuals to ensure that children really do get the best education that it is possible to provide.]]>
