Homeschooling and parent of five here🖐🏻 Shout Out to your family and all homeschooling families, esp mothers👏🏾👏🏾🥳 Well done for sailing this far family 🎉🎉🥳❗ Love from Scotland ✊🏻
I keep nodding my head like " yep yep" as I watch this video. I couldn't agree more with you. Me and the wife went through the same, looked at the schools' stats and all. Now home education our 3 kids. You get to experience your children's growth 1st hand and the chance to teach your family values with less interference. I have to say it's not easy. Rewarding? O YEAH! In my view. BTW, kids can't learn on an empty stomach. Your part was as crucial as your wife's. 👍🏿👍🏿👍🏿. Congratulations to you both!🎉
There are also Grammar schools which wasn't discussed. Ensure you're being strategic from primary to secondary school. You have to move to the area/s with the best schools due to the catchment area requirements within good time before the application closing date; check your local council for this requirement. Keep your children busy with some extracurricular activities such music, sports or IT based subjects if they have interest.
Just a note. The comparison between the two schools is primary vs secondary school. The percentages for primary school were good for a primary school. Most primary schools are average or below. In high school which is the second school the percentages are higher. Tip for people looking for schools always compare against national and local area average. And make sure you are comparing primary to primary.
Ok. I didn’t realise that it was primary and secondary. The point is most deprived areas have bad performing schools generally. Thanks for pointing that out.
@@ruwaorganic i generally agree with the points you made. I just was cautious of people looking for primary schools to expects the 40 something percentages when national average is around 7%. I personally have gone with private option due to the reasons you mentioned
Sometimes its not the school's problem, parents are so busy with shifts they don't even look at their kids work or support them, let alone attend school meetings. Kana riri demo idemo .even if you send them to private school's the result will be the same.
I am so happy to see a fellow Zimbabwean talking about homeschooling success. Thank you for doing this video. I am strongly leaning towards homeschooling my children but i'm stuck on curriculum choices. If its okay with you, may you kindly share which curriculum/books you used when homeschooling your children.
You can use the curriculum of where you are based or depending on what plans you have for you r children and work backwards. We used the British curriculum because that is where we were based
@@ruwaorganic thank you for the quick response. I am based in the Netherlands, they speak and teach in the Dutch language hence why I'm stuck on curriculums because I don't speak Dutch yet. I will keep digging deep otherwise the only options will be the International Baccalaureate/Cambridge. Again, thank you so much for your response.
Yeah I lived in south Africa and then my family moved to England and in south Africa the students are well disciplined and have respectful. When I went to school in England it was awful there was no discipline and no respect. I remember kids making fun of me for calling a teacher mam which is crazy. Anyway I really didn't like school but I have ended up doing mechanical engineering at University.
Hi mkuru, Ko homeschooling makaaisvitsa to what stage for your children? Which subjects needed tutors in general? I am getting ideas but I need more info.
Mostly done without tutors. The eldest 2 did not have tutors for most of their home education. The other 3 had tutors in Covid and soon after but back to usual teaching. Two fully home educated until 16 and two until 14. One who is 13 is still full time home educated. You do not need tutors to home educate but if you need some you find any according to your needs,
I thought I was going to hear some insight into the UK education system but instead I heard a parent bragging about the achievements of their children.
@@TichM8 Lgbt is not a necessary skill for children to learn at school. Hollywood is already doing a splendid job to indoctrinate kids without the schools getting involved
@@TichM8How's that homophobic? He's not afraid of homosexuals.. isn't that what homophobia is? Plus why is it anyone who doesn't support that depraved lifestyle labelled homophobic? Stop pushing your alphabet idealogy on all of us!!!!!!

Totally agree ... But also private schools have their own issues too ... talking through experience. Thanks for bringing this out in the open.

I do private tuition after teaching in the uk for 25 years. I do online lessons with pupils from all over the world especially students in the uk
Also homeschooling. Challenging at times but worth it
It is not easy but definitely worth it.
True, True 🎉@@ruwaorganic
First mistake you can make as a parent is living in Luton.
so true 😂😂😂
This is basic stuff but really important, thanks for sharing.

That’s true.

Technically its not free, tax money pays for it.

This is proper click bait was expecting a better comparison bro improve your video quality

Bro how old are you?
He is 43.. me guessing
Looks too young to have a child doing a doctorate right?😅
46
Quite close
He skipped his Masters because of some credits he got white doing his Bachelors of science in Astrophysics and a First class honours
Can we actually get to the comparisons?? This is click bait! Mxxxm
Exactly what I was thinking woulda liked to see more about zim
I will do a comparison video 😀
@@ruwaorganicplease Do
I thought I was going to hear some insight into the UK education system but instead I heard a parent bragging about the achievements of their children.
The point of this video was to highlight that the free schools are not as good as people think.
You didn’t want your children learning about the alphabet letters 🤣🤣😜. If you know you know
😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂
