A great way of ensuring your Home Education journey goes smoothly is to read all of this website. The menu at the top will help you navigate each section.

Have you ever wondered how your LA works behind the scenes, if they’re competent at forwarding simple letters, if they’re able to answer some simple questions, if they’re able to protect data etc? Well this report explains just how badly many LAs are. It is discussing the letter DfE asked every English LA to forward to home educators telling them the CWS act will not take effect just yet, and the subsequent FOI GingerSnap sent. You can also read your LA individualised portfolio on the Educational Freedom website, as well as fill in the survey to let us know your experience. https://gingersnapshomeedfacts.substack.com/p/can-the-current-infastructure-cope?r=2yzsjz&utm_campaign=post&utm_medium=web&showWelcome
We don’t usually share home ed events, because otherwise we’d be run off our feet with them, however, we love the tank museum so wanted to share this one.
