@ChildrensComm They aren't falling off the radar, the LAs are informed/there is legislation in place already that protects the children. You need to do more research. School is an option, the responsibility for learning opportunities is the parent's. And parents home-school for good reason.

https://t.co/Qj6oQOqiBh is a new website that goes into the issues #Dispatches covered in more depth. Worth a look. #skippingschool #homeeducation

[Adele Jarrett-Kerr @AdeleJK]

Illegal schools and home education are separate issues. That's why OFSTED is involved in identifying unregistered schools. Why conflate these two issues other than to amp up fear around home ed? #dispatches

[TLC - Transformational Learning Community @Wakeup_2_Life]

@C4Dispatches @Channel4 Can we say hand on heart that many children access what can be defined as a 'good education' in school? With cuts to budgets and lack of SEN training, some children don't feel safe at school. A register will not resolve the root cause of the move into #homeeducation

[sparkyannc @sparkyannc]

Conflating education and welfare is very dangerous. It’s what leads to agency confusion. The *existing* laws need to be followed. Flooding the system with children who are not at risk puts those who are at greater harm. #dispatches

[sparkyannc @sparkyannc]

All parents have the same duty to follow s.7 of the 1996 Education Act, whether they choose to use the schooling system or not. The State is not the parent. #Dispatches

I will never, ever, understand the logic of registration and monitoring home-education because schools are failing more and more children. You are looking down the wrong end of the telescope. #HomeEducation #SchoolFailure

The disgusting negativity towards #homeeducation currently is a total insult to all the homeschooled young people out there contributing to the working world. And is little short of discrimination which I thought this country was against https://t.co/a9JV870Af3

[Joyful Activities @WhatsOnHomeEd]

@ChildrensComm Outrageous that you can take the failings of schools and of other state support systems for SEN children and use them as a tool to establish a register and monitoring of home educating families. The families are not the ones failing the children.

[ROSS MOUNTNEY @RMOUNTNEY7]

It is a disgusting insult to lump off-rolled pupils, whose schools are abandoning them, in with conscientious home educators; Children's commissioner calls for compulsory register of 'off the grid' home schooled children https://t.co/HjCPOoVMyS

The education system is broken! Many children are being let down. Perhaps the government should change the system. Stop forcing children to fit the curriculum and create a curriculum to fit the children. Thats why #homeed works!

#HomeEdInsight Children learn so much from games, hand eye coordination, problem solving, strategy, teamwork, maths and literacy, storytelling. All different types of games for different subjects.

So hard to get people to see beyond their educated conditioning! Ga-Ga on Home Education! https://t.co/MW9w90jrXy via @RMOUNTNEY7

[OneTreeHill @LearnWhoYouAre]

Hi @VictoriaCoren What are your thoughts on home education in the U.K.? It’s very much misunderstood despite being based on healthy child neurodevelopment and mental health, and frequently enables a child who was bullied, ‘failing’ or mentally unwell at school to thrive

[Elza @ronascottsmum]

We tried. But failed! Learning happens so spontaneously we have no chance of stopping it 🙄. #HomeEd is a way of living. A mindset. There’s no escape! https://t.co/d69Ov2I25G

#HomeEdHour We’ve been up in Scotland visiting family this month and Big Yin has been working on his touch typing on Burning Cargo (amongst other things).

#autistic, #SPD, #anxiety, #motorplanning issues... nervous-breakdown from school, to this happy, confident, ambitious #learner who sees herself as successful, this took months to master, #resilience #tenacity #homeedhour

[Unschooling Mama @MamaUnschooling]

My kids wrote the most amazing 'reviews' of home ed today completely autonomously and both gave it 5 stars 😃 B spent ages presenting hers beautifully in different coloured sparkly gel pens. God I flipping love home ed #HomeEdInSight

[Home Ed In Sight @homeedinsight]

I think fair to say this: UK citizens are innocent until proven guilty. There are processes to flag up where any1 feels a child is at risk, laws & procedures are in place to protect children if & when used correctly. Home education is not inherently #safeguarding risk #homeedhour
