Home schooling is where parents, guardians or home tutors educate children from home instead of sending them to school. The number of young people being tutored from home has increased over the last few years, especially since the coronavirus pandemic. More than ever, people today want a choice, and this includes having access to educational resources which support remote education and home learning and which also fit a range of learning styles.

COVID-19 and Home Schooling

During COVID, parents have had the opportunity to play an important role in their children’s learning experience. Home schooling children was not an easy undertaking. However, countless parents were required to home educate their children during the COVID-19 lockdowns while schools were shut. While many found home education to be a steep learning curve and extremely challenging, a large number felt the process of home learning was a positive experience. So whether a parent is an experienced home educator or a complete novice, home tutoring is a deeply rewarding venture for many parents and carers.

Why Home School?

People decide to home educate for a variety of reasons including:

  • Concerns about standards of education in their local school
  • Worries relating to bullying
  • A desire to have some control over their child’s religious or spiritual beliefs
  • A philosophy towards a less structured approach to learning

There are many other reasons why parents choose to home educate, and the child’s educational wellbeing is invariably at the centre of that decision. It is therefore vital that careful consideration is given to the curriculum.

Home School Curriculum

One of the first questions many parents ask themselves when they decide to home school is, ‘What do I teach my child?’ Everyone is different and every child learns differently.

When considering the practicalities of home schooling, how does parental education impact on the level and quality of home schooling? To be frank, while a good education is important, the most crucial aspect for parents is simply to ‘get involved’ with online learning. No amount of parental education will benefit children if a parent takes no interest in their children’s learning.

It is important to take things slowly at first and reach out for support. There are many resources available free of charge. For example, a local library is a great resource, and not just for books. Libraries provide many other services such as IT resources including computers and internet access.

It is a good idea for home schooling parents to network with other home schoolers to share skills. Where one parent lacks certain knowledge, another will be able to provide the necessary expertise. Parents can also access private tuition provided by school teachers who offer after school coaching or grinds. The individual support can help young people master difficult subjects or prepare for exams.

Home School Schedule

It isn’t necessary for a home school to match a typical school day. Many home schooling families prefer to be led by their children’s needs. They reason that young people learn more by interacting with the world around them. They make use of local museums, galleries, parks and local sports facilities and allow their youngsters to learn in an organic way.

Other home schooling parents use a general school curriculum and model their home school on a school timetable. It is also a good idea to set up a home schooling network where a group of families can share resources.

The Benefits of Home Schooling

The COVID-19 crisis emphasised the important roles teachers and parents/carers play in children’s education, and some of the most important outcomes of home schooling include:

  • Parents/carers can become more engaged with their children’s progress and can understand the challenges they face.
  • The relationship between parents and teachers can improve considerably.
  • Parents/carers are able to gain more insight into their children’s education.

Home Schooling Resources

As part of our commitment to providing teachers and parents with the tools they require, All Resources has developed a range of educational resources and online lessons which can be used in a school or home setting to facilitate a child’s education. We therefore provide home learning resources to support elearning as well as tools for parents who are home schooling their children. To prepare children for the world they live in, we have produced a series of lesson plans specifically designed to encourage frank discussion of COVID-19. Parents/guardians will find they make a useful addition to their home schooling projects.


Home Schooling Resources for Parents/Carers

Teaching young people that are home schooled can be a difficult task. Our aim is to produce resources that:

  • Give help, guidance and education on various educational topics
  • Inform as well as educate

Home Schooling Resources for Students

We publish downloadable home schooling ebooks to support students by:

  • Dealing with subjects in a straightforward manner
