Advice from Home Educators
"Let go of everything you think you know about education. So many people including me at the start think it requires recreating school at home, 9-3, Mon-Fri, it doesn't!"

Tips from us
Read our FAQ and the legal stuff. Knowing your rights is VERY important.
Are you a child minder willing to care for a home educated child? Add your details here.
Please note: Educational Freedom takes no responsibility for the accuracy of the information listed about each childminder. We recommend caution and common sense when choosing a childminder. Please do your own research and checks before employing a minder.
A childminder can not be legally responsible for providing home education for your child, however, it is acceptable for them to oversee 'homework'.
Would like some over 5 year olds to join in on our days out. I currently home educate my 8 and 2 year old. Once a primary school teacher, now an advocate of Self Directed Education. Not an Ofsted registered childminder as a result but I do have a current DBS certificate. I use non violent communication, PET problem solving strategies for conflict and would like to try sociocratic processes for planning our days.
