We get 'Boggled' explaining it 😀
Home schooling is only one of many ways to #homeeducate.
#homeeducation includes a wider variety of education philosophies and described in #law ! No 'curriculum' is required #wordsmatter #joinin #language #rightinformation #WordGames
As spring approaches, keep an eye out for local spring craft and activity events in your local area, or organise your own with a few families. Home educating is a great way to follow the seasons and changes in the natural world, learning as you go.🥚🌺🐦
Home Education Scotland’s 2021 Annual General Meeting will take place on the Zoho platform at 7pm, 10th November.
All members are welcome. Please email us, using ‘AGM’ in the subject field, to let us know that you wish to attend so that we can send you a meeting link.

"Child Protection" in the family home is completely different from "Safeguarding" in a professional setting.
Parents are criminalised and "professionals" are protected... That has GOT to change.
Protect children in ALL settings from abuse IN LAW
otherwise nothing will change!
How words change the meaning.
Our children are not only educated at home, there is so much to take part in within our network and a wide variety of #groups for different #interests. Getting a day at home can be challenging some weeks!
#Homeeducate' means we educate #everywhere

Great to see all the events taking place to raise awareness of #DyslexiaAwarenessWeek. Because of school holidays, Dyslexia Awareness Week in Scotland is 1 - 7 November. #DAWScot21
We're grateful to our contacts at @WDCouncil & @SouthLanCouncil for also taking time to meet with us in recent weeks. These chats are so very important to us and we really look forward to positive follow up with you both! Little changes over time is huge for our families.
Very positive & constructive chat with Melanie @EduAberdeen this week. We hope this is the first of many future meetings that can bring increased understanding/better relationships for families in this area. Looking forward to working with you! @aberdeenshireEP @Aberdeenshire
Are you the teacher?
What do you teach?
Who tells you what to teach?
We don't 'teach' and #learning isn't categorised in lessons. We do however #facilitate ongoing learning in many ways. Each #family decides what is best for their own #child depending on how they learn best.
Its just gone 2pm and the lights are on (!) but there are no dull days in #homeed We're watching the very busy bird activity in the garden, whilst being #creative, after getting delightfully wet and muddy yesterday with #friends. 🌲🍂🍁🍃☔️🌨️

Importance of terminology! We do not seek permission & we are not given permission to #homeeducate. It is already a parental right with #equalstatus to school.
We do not deregister in Scotland. We do submit a letter & provision to the LA so they can process consent to withdraw.
"3.3 Withdrawing the child from school - the process
Procedures for considering a parent's request to withdraw a child from school should be fair, clear, consistent and without delay"
#Trust & #respect are gained by #reviewing, #adapting and continually #improving this process.
