I have never tried home ed but my DD would like to take a year out of formal UK school between GCSE and 6th form.
She has convinced me that it would actually be a sensible idea and we have a year to plan what she should do.
She is very bright and will take all her GCSEs a year early next Summer when only 14years old (no choice) and doesn't want to end up taking A levels a year early as well, I agree.
She would like to learn a language (preferably a Scandinavian one, Icelandic ideally , she loves the sagas) and travel a bit. I would be happy to go with her. Apart from that we don't have too many ideas yet. Her main driver is that she is sick of school.
Does anyone have any ideas or links of how we can go about this? I don't want to cause problems with the education authorities.
