Workshop Reminders

From Freedom For Children to Grow

"Spring Into Action...please spread the word.

The Government is planning changes to the monitoring of home education. Proposed changes include: that HEors produce a mission statement and clear plan which we stick to, targets, a broad and balanced curriculum, more surveillance and monitoring from the LA to make sure we are "doing it properly".

Education Otherwise has organised 3 more Regional Campaign Workshops which are free to all home educating families. All workshops include Children's Room with CRB-checked worker and supervised activities. Please contact local organisers for more details.
