@AnglianWater please can someone help me? Our bills have tripled since moving into your area, but our water use has gone down. We have reported months ago but no one has contacted. Our bills are currently ridiculously high for no clear reason

“Somerset Council has recognised that taking a positive and supportive approach to home education makes for better relations with home educators and better outcomes for home-educated children.” https://t.co/Mi8VrZFm8J

Interesting read @TelegraphNews - teacher now home educates due to school limitations

Excellent must read evidence based analysis on why this bill will in fact harm children not help them by diverting resources and away from those most at risk

A new amendment has been proposed to be included within the Children's Wellbeing and Schools Bill. This is a serious threat to home education as a lawful and immediate choice and why we keep campaigning about the bill to the protect the rights of home educators.

The CWSB says "School is considered a protective environment for most children.” Yet @ChildrenSociety household survey 2025 “highlights that school is the area of life where children and young people most commonly feel unhappy."

@GBNEWS - how many other presents is @RoyalMail damaging this year do you think? This one’s a gift for a 5 year old

[Anne Buckland @AnneHBuckland]

Hey @RoyalMail - does this really look like the safe delivery of a gift for a 5 year old?

“Home education is another school choice, and it holds equal weight in law … so why are they not given equal access to exams when they’re the key marker for moving forward?” Joanna Merritt

[Nat Wei @NatWei]

The government recently refused to help home ed families get better local access to sit exams. With extra cost and bureaucracy in the CSW Bill linked to home ed & Budget cuts, will more schools/centres be forced to deny families/children this basic right?

“The system failed to keep her safe”

Searing assessment of our current broken services.

The existing services need to be fixed, before taking more rights from parents

This particular quote resonates with our style of learning. It is amazing how much of life is connected. This makes learning so much more relevant and fuels curiosity. #homeeduk

15th November is celebrated by home educators as Joy Baker Day. On this day in 1961 Joy Baker won the right to educate her children at home after a 10 year battle with the local authority. https://t.co/oFjA9ep9Yy

Today’s LCSP review: Sara Sharif’s murder was committed by her father and not prevented due to serious LA safeguarding errors. Home education was not to blame. Yet the same overstretched LAs will now oversee new home-ed registers. Will this prevent harm or cause more errors?

"Parental Rights Under Threat.

We must recognise the stress the Children's Wellbeing Bill is placing on parents. Parents should be supported, not treated as suspects. @BigBrotherWatch @ByDonkeys

Digital ID could be the biggest threat to our future selves. Has the Post Office scandal taught us nothing? @jarbuthnot1966 https://t.co/DeRiyR4CRF

When parents & teachers unite to protest a bill, surely someone needs to listen? https://t.co/2NOarPf4n8 @TheABB @Nodigitaliduk @emilysmith_7

[VCF UK 🟪🟪🟪 @UKVCF]

The Children's Bill includes sweeping powers which we have warned are dangerous for children.

Neither children nor families consulted on consistent identifier or the powers to share data without consent on broad grounds.

"Buried inside the Children’s [...] Bill lies the blueprint for Starmer’s surveillance state. [It] convert[s] every child’s NHS number into a digital tag linking their school records, medical[...]and family details into one government-controlled network"
