Educating your child at home

Parents have a responsibility to make sure their child is educated. Most children attend school for their education, but parents have the right to educate their child at home, this is called elective home education (EHE).

Educating your child at home is a big commitment and there's a lot to think about. If you are considering it, our guidance can help you make your decision.
