The Case for Home Schooling

"Many children‘s lives are so busy with school journeys, subject changes, after-school clubs, and homework that they have little time to think or to take ownership of the life they are leading. They spend an awful lot of time being ‘processed‘ by well-intentioned adults.... I will happily home educate my children all the way through their education, if that is what they want to do.
