 Anything you need, just ask here. If you really feel you need further support, consider any other option but that one. You'll be absolutely fine, especially with Elaine on your case.

Elaine is great, but Diane ain't bad either (tee hee).
Mike at HE-UK has had years of home ed., training LAs, researching and writing, and his wife has produced a book on autonomous learning too. The list is free. Badman Review Action Group is also lively. It tends to be more political though, and UK-Families is good for grass roots questions and day to day stuff. Please let me know if you want the joining links. Diane http://www.threedegreesoffreedom.blogspot.com

 For all i know it might get me a fair bit but it seems to me i am getting all i need from here!

Riaz, hi, its a mix of the two, primary mostly. I think i would probably be best doing one or the other. It was just a friends suggestion. I have a child with CF and 2 with Diabetes so she thought it would be a viable option for me. One of the reasons I thought about HE in the first place was because of the pressuresw(on the kids mostly) of school/health. Going somedays and HE ing others might just make things even more difficult! It was just an idea. thanks all for your responses, you guys are great.x

I flexi-school in Fife
Hello
I started flexi-schooling my 5 year old son this summer, so we are now in our 2nd school term. I think flexi-school gives young children welcome relief from school, which is clearly too exhausting for my son. During the first term we carried on with literacy and numeracy on his flexi days (in a different guise) and he loved it all. This second term however he is shutting down to school work at home so we are enjoying flexi days through the outdoors and play. I found the basics from school, e.g. the jolly phonics system very helpful in getting a lead on how to start. Hope this helps some way. Best, Paula

perfect!
Hi Diane
I loved reading your post and agree with you totaly. My 9 yesr old is intelectually alive,self assured, takes responsibility for his learning, well most of the time, he loves to learn and learning for him is natural and fulfilling, only becasue he was taken out of the education system. Best Wishes Jane Greaves xx

yes to flexischooling
yes i have had a very positive experience to flexischooling. i approached my local school with the idea of my child taking part in certain subjects in school (such as music and pe) and the head teacher was more than willing to accommodate me. to me it was the best of both worlds. i could home educate the subjects which my son needed one to one tudoring in and the ones wheich he would benefit more from a group he did at school. we had since put all our children back into school but would definitely not hesitate to try this again if it suited our needs.
