Graham Badman, the author of the report, said that home education as it stood lacked “the correct balance between the rights of parents and the rights of the child either to an appropriate education or to be safe from harm”.
If the balance isnt correct then it must be weighing on the side of the parents. Doesnt sound too bad a thing that to me. Most of the home Ed kids i know seem further advanced in their educatuion than kids at school.
Kids at school are not getting the best education because trying to manage behavioural problems and teach 25-30 kids at the same time, plus fill out tons of buruacratic paper is not the best recipe.
Cant understand why Education Authority want to make such a big issue over few children _________________ JO911B.

Short excerpt from article in the Christian paper Evangelical Times
Quote:
Home Schooling and the State
Control
Furstly, the State (if true to recent form) would rather not have any of its citizens reject its own accepted wisdom. It is about control. We are not talking about terrorists ,of course, but about people who do not share the same philosophy as those in power and would prefer to pass on their own values rather than the Governments to their children.
