Reasons Why People Home Educate Are Usually Based on the Negative Inpact of Schools and the Benefits of Home Education.

The Negative Impact of school
*Institutional, factory setting, with a curriculum set in place because the teacher must teach the same thing to 30 children in a class.
*Seperation from the parent/care giver.  Children are also attending school younger than ever.  In the UK, children start school as young as 4, wheras in Europe and other countries, children start at 6 or 7.
*Parents seen as trouble for 'interferring' if they show an interest
*The child is pushed into reading and writing at a very young age to meet the needs of the teacher, and this can lead to low self esteem and failure.
*The child may not get the assistance they need.
*Teaching is based on standards, not the individual.
*Children learn undesirable social skills and behaviour from peers and lack role models and mentors.
*The authoritarian approach from school staff.
*Children may be treated in a way we would not want to condone or be treated ourselves from peers and staff.
* Children may lack emotional support.
*Peer rejection.
*Bullying from peers and staff.
*Violence becoming common in schools.
*The needs of children with disabilities/special needs not always met appropriately.
*Children may manage but not have the opportunity to excel.
*Focus on teaching, instead of learning.
