(From the article):" Dame Rachel de Souza, the children’s commissioner, said ...“
Those that choose to exercise their right within the law to home educate are indeed entitled to do that,
however, I do think that it is important to know who they are
and where they are to make sure that children are accounted for and have support if it is needed..”
"A Department for Education spokesperson said:...“This will not impact the right of parents who want to educate their children at home,
provided it is done with the child’s best interests in mind and the education is suitable.”
(My Comment): Expect a further crackdown on independent thought and independent schooling offered by 'home schooling'
as the formal government school system resents and resists their inability to program indoctrination and expose children to uniform 'State thought'.
This is all done under education agencies using the guise of concern for the children and access to resources,
and not concern for children's accelerated and advanced higher learning.
It's a governmental ploy !
Expect the same lame concerns in this country by school systems and school administrators.
