I spoke to the home education officer after sending in an ed phil.
She said they like to visit in the home and she'd like to meet the children (6 and 10 years) see samples of their work, see where 'they're at' in Maths and English and ask them what they like about home education.
They write a report afterwards I think, then send us a copy. The LEA officer is going to contact again for a definite appointment date.
Does this sound reasonable? I don't think my ten year old would mind answering such questions, but my six year old I'm not sure about.
Most of all I don't know what to expect from a visit, I think I don't have to provide work samples, but in that case they won't be able to write a report, will they? and though have searched on the home ed websites, haven't been able to find much help.
