Hi truth, I don't know anyone who is home educating in NI so I can't be of much help. Have you tried HEdNI? www.hedni.org/

Hi Saracen. Thanks anyway for responding. Yes I have tried and am a member of HEDNI. Have posted twice on this site with no replies yet!! Perhaps it's early days as I haven't that long registered.

hi truth. i cant even get hedni to accept me lol. maybe because i said i was thinking about it and not actually doing it. im fairly close to you. how are you finding it?

I replied on another post - and just found you again... And there's another NI person - hi MrsGeorgeMichael

I'm on the Down/Armagh border with a 3yo DS. I've looked at HedNI but it didn't seem very active. Is it all abuzz and I've just missed it?

Hi mrsgeorgemichael all going well with my 5 yr old son. I am so pleased I've found someone else from northern Ireland. I have been home ed 3 months now. He was initially in p1. He started school age 4-5yrs,he hated it. I felt he was too young. He is happier now learning at home. Are you thinking about it yourself.?
