I thought I would do a post about what resources that we recommend, as I know we are almost over the pandemic but I am also aware there are lot’s more people who have decided to stick with home education. We have been home educating for 6 years now and still remember how overwhelming it was when we first started out! So here are some great home-schooling resources UK, that we have used or still use now.

Home educating in the UK

We have been home educating now for 6 years now and although it is becoming more and more popular in the UK, especially since the pandemic, there are so many people that don’t understand how it works. You can read more about home-schooling your child in the UK, under UK laws here.

You can teach your child at home, either full or part-time. This is called home education. You can get help with home education from your local council. … As a parent, you must make sure your child receives a full-time education from the age of 5 but you don’t have to follow the national curriculum.

Home school UK

These are resources that we use frequently, covering multiple subjects.

Squadcation – History. At £25 for a years subscription for home educator’s, I had to share! One year’s licence provides access to over 300 films, quizzes and a host of other features. 60 Second Histories is a really neat tool for supporting the National Curriculum for history.

I do not know if it’s just me or if everybody
else encountering issues with your blog. It appears as
though some of the text within your content are running off
the screen. Can somebody else please comment and let me know if this
is happening to them too? This could be a problem with my internet browser
because I’ve had this happen previously. Kudos

When I initially commented I clicked the “Notify me when new comments are added” checkbox and now each time a comment is added I get three emails with the same comment. Is there any way you can remove people from that service? Appreciate it!|

Have you ever considered about including a little
bit more than just your articles? I mean, what you say is important and all.
Nevertheless just imagine if you added some great
images or video clips to give your posts more, “pop”!
Your content is excellent but with pics and videos, this site could definitely be one of the best in its
field. Awesome blog!
