My daughter asked if she could sit with her knees up, notebook against her knees, when we do written work in home ed. I told her she could sit however she likes as long as it means she can learn comfortably, and that she can take little breaks whenever. She was gobsmacked.

Hi Bridget Phillipson. My 10 year old was bored to tears and frustrated by constant disruption in her class at school. She's thriving in home education, receiving the appropriate level of challenge and sitting her first GCSE next summer. Why would school be a better place for her?

Can't express enough how excited I am that maths is making sense to me 😭🤣 the part of starting a STEM degree I was most worried about, and I'm actually enjoying it 🥹

Reason 6384857483 (I wish I'd kept a proper count of these reasons 😂) I'm glad we home educate: my daughter is allowed to rest when she's ill and have an appointment when she needs one.

Absolute superstars. I keep getting emotional thinking about what they've done and how much they've raised. Over £1200 for The Brain Tumour Charity. So so proud ❤️

How long until we see people suggesting parents shouldn't read to their children so that everyone is on a level playing field ready for phonics 😵‍💫 Speaking as a parent whose child struggled with phonics because she was reading confidently by Reception age 🤷🏻‍♀️

This particular figure about a sharp decline 11-14 is v significant. We *have* to know why & do something about it. Of course, smart phones & internet may play a part. But what else? A few ideas to follow.... 1. 1. Relentless focus on reading for 'academic' success & exams....1/

Just realised, it's been seven months since I deregistered my daughter from school after getting a letter saying "if children are not in school, they cannot learn". Happy 7 months of not learning to us 😅 #homeed #homeschool #homeschooling #homeeducation
