Why Homeschool?
Families homeschool for different reasons. Some of these reasons include:
• the educational needs of their children (e.g. giftedness or a learning difficulties);
• time with their children, flexible work/school schedules;
• the freedom to pursue the child's own individual interests;
• a focus on developing their children’s characters in the home environment, whilst focusing on the family’s own values.
Some families reject homeschooling as a possible option because they lack confidence to ‘take it on’. Some parents are not even aware it is an option.

Do you home school high school students?
ReplyDeleteHi Rex,
ReplyDeleteYes - there are some families in the group who homeschool high school students. Did you have any specific questions? One of the topics covered at the seminar was how homeschool students can get into uni with a STAT or SAT test and by-pass the HSC.
