Homeschooling in NSW

 

Home schooling, also called home education, is education delivered

in a child’s home by a parent or guardian, under the Education Act 1990.

Home schooling allows a parent or guardian to integrate the NSW curriculum

with the learning processes that occur naturally in the home throughout a child's development.

Parents or guardians who are home schooling a child accept responsibility

for developing, implementing and evaluating their child's learning program.

Registration with the Board of Studies NSW is a legal requirement for

home schooling while a child is of compulsory school age and not enrolled

in a school.

Read the Home Education information Package for further information

about home schooling and to help decide if this form of education is

appropriate for you and your child.

Home Education Association Inc.

Home education, or homeschooling, is a legal alternative to

school education in all Australian states. As the name suggests,

it involves a parent taking direct responsibility for the education

of their children at home.

The HEA was formed in April 2001 to promote the practice of homeschooling

in Australia and to provide members with benefits which would be difficult

to obtain by individuals or smaller groups.
