I have no plans to home educate as I am generally happy with my son's school. However he is coming under huge pressure to choose GCSE history instead of GCSE music.
I would love my son to do GCSE music outside school, but its very hard as its a practical subject and you need other people to do group work with. GCSE music is different to grades because there is a composition element and I feel the group work aspect would be valuable to my son in developing his communication skills.
Is GCSE music something that a home educated teen might be interested in? I want my son to be able to get a good clutch of GCSEs so that he can either do sixth form or go to college. The only real life home ed musical family I know see little benefit in doing GCSE music.
