I had a thread on here a while back about HE for my DS age 15.
He's been at home since September.
Because of work commitments, but mostly because of DS's difficulty with just about all written learning, I haven't been very good at home educating him. We just rely on GCSE Bitesize for almost everything - he likes the interactive element.
I feel that it's too late to do a lot of child led learning - his GCSEs are looming and since he's been in mainstream school until this year, I think we should be just concentrating on trying to get him through his Maths, English and Science (though I think we'll be lucky to pass all three).
He is still registered with the school as they were hoping that he would get a place with the PRS which would give him 5 hrs one on one tuition a week.
The application process is still ongoing.
I don't know if Bitesize is giving him anything like enough as I can't check what has entered his head and he refuses to to take notes. He just records his quiz scores.
I feel bad because DS is just left to his own devices so often - but I have to work.
