The Truth Behind Homeschooling in The UK – Wendy Charles-Warner | Wisdom Rebellion #003
Why are an increasing number of parents opting out of the public schools?
Wendy Charles-Warner is an expert in alternative education, who brings invaluable insights into the various forms homeschooling can take - from topic-based learning to world schooling.
We explore the socioeconomic factors influencing parents' decisions to homeschool, and how these choices differ across income levels. We talk about the practical aspects of homeschooling and the benefits of tailoring education to fit a child's unique interests, but also the broader implications of this shift including the resistance to change within the traditional educational system and the increasing regulation coming from the government.
Whether you're a parent considering homeschooling or simply interested in the future of education, this episode will provide you with a comprehensive understanding of the homeschooling landscape as well as the challenges and rewards it presents.
It’s time to reshape the educational experience to better meet the needs of children today.
