I have just started home edding my twins. We're between schools- ie we have de-regged them from their last school and we're waiting for them to move up the list for the new school- no idea how long it's going to take. A few weeks in and we're all finding it really positive- in fact it's better than I'd dared hope, for the whole family- so far, at any rate.
We're doing some daily reading and writing and odd maths activities- this is all pretty informal and done on a sort of ad hoc basis, but we are doing it (I have had a look at the National Curriculum stuff but must admit have found it pretty off putting and baffling- has been on my to-do list for weeks ) Rest of the time, we're on outings and playing and generally just messing about...
I emailed the LEA to let them know I'd taken the dcs out and they've sent me back a form for us to fill in asking what we're doing, and saying that someone will visit for an Informal Chat.
Now, they seem positive and helpful, as far as I can tell, and my hunch is to co-operate until something goes wrong...has anyone else had good experiences with their LEA?
