Homeschooling Around the World
A recent report on home education in England by a British government official makes the case that homeschooling should be extensively regulated. The report recommends families be required to register annually with local authorities, submit learning plans, and undergo regular inspections. If they fail the inspections, homeschool parents could be forced to send their children to school. Another part of the report says the state should have the authority to choose the curriculum. It appears the report will be accepted as policy. Read more on the HSLDA website, in the WorldNetDaily article, and in the British newspaper article. Please keep homeschoolers in England upheld in your prayers!
