We have an 11yo, and 8yo and a 4yo. The older boys are in mainstream school. The little girl is due to start prep next year. We have debated for the past year about whether or not to home school. I would love to hear from anyone - particularly people who were home schooled and how they viewed the experience - especially relating to job prospects and university. We live in Brisbane Australia.

SB’s cafe asked:


I am thinking about “Home Schooling” my son. I have had many problems with his teacher and am still trying to resolve them. I keep getting the “run-around”. For instance, on his school work he makes 100%-90%’s and on his report card she lowers his grade. I have tried talking and talking and talking to the teacher and principal and I have not reached a solution. I already have my “Home School” verification #(Indiana). I’m trying to be patient and waiting for an outcome to this problem.
