Farewell 2007 Guidelines for Local Authorities on Elective Home Education
If any more evidence were needed that the current “Home Education - registration and monitoring proposals” consultation is a sham, with the results totally predetermined we now have the disappearance of the 2007 Guidelines for Local Authorities on Elective Home Education from the DCSF web site. Clearly Ed Balls’ minions don’t see any need to leave ‘outdated’ guidelines online where they might cause confusion.

It is VERY shabby indeed. What with this behaviour, all the vetting and barring and intervening in private family life, it really IS getting ridiculous. Any semblance of respect for democratic values on the part of this government…now FIRMLY out the window.

It seems that home education is under threat in Europe. We have a few Scandinavian members on our site who are working to stop their government from banning home education altogether. You can talk to them at http://www.networkhomeschool.com.
