Hi
Looking for advice or your experiences please.
DD yr 10 has been very badly bullied at her private school, excluded from friends, school have let her down, but that’s a whole different thread!
I’ve taken her out as she had what I can only describe as a breakdown and I’ve promised she won’t go back there. There is no space at the local school, but we’re at the top of the list for a good one with excellent pastoral care - a state school and I think she will fit in better there.
In the meantime I intend to homeschool, as the only other school is definitely not right. The LA have asked my intentions and I’ve told them, but I don’t know what else I have to do to provide any proof of schooling. Do I have to submit any sort of plan? Is there any paperwork to complete?
I’m trying to go over what she has already done and can do the ‘soft’ subjects RS, Drama, even English, but may need some help with science and maths. She currently still has access to school Hegarty maths, so I’ve been using that for practice questions on subjects we’ve revisited and I quite enjoy when we go over things, something else crops up which she has forgotten and we can divert and then look at that, but I don’t know how long I have the Hegarty before school pull the plug.
What’s the general experience of tutors? Can I get Hegarty Maths as a personal thing? Do I have to keep a record of what she does everyday?
I don’t want to do too much as I think she needs time to just recover and she is having counselling, but I’m finding it a bit daunting to be honest. It may be weeks, or months before a space for her crops up and I’m very aware she is at the start of GCSEs too.
Any advice, help, suggestions would be welcome. Thank you.
