A child who is home educated should receive funding from the government for examination entry. This is about equal opportunities for all children to ensure an inclusive education for all. We believe home educating is a successful way of educating a child which prioritises health and wellbeing alongside education. Furthermore, a large percentage of home educated children may be neurodiverse and may have been let down severely by mainstream education settings.
