Milestones

We are asking for the government to introduce financial and resource grants for families who choose elective home education for their children. Currently, many parents do not have support, nor direction on where to start with home-schooling alongside carrying the full financial burden.

Parents who elect to home school their children for a variety of reasons i.e. SEND needs, anxiety or just because they know the classroom environment is not suitable for their child. They may not have support for resources, a guidance of coverage nor support for the funding of this. We are asking the government to bridge this gap and provide financial support and guidance to support the rising costs of essential resources, curriculum materials, exam fees and extra curricula activities.
