The first thing you need to do of course is to sit down and think about why you want to teach your children at home, rather than to send them to your local public or private school.

We look at home schooling versus public schools and consider some of the factors which might lead you do choose one of the many home schooling programs. We also examine both the advantages of home schooling and the disadvantages of home schooling.

If you do decide that this is the best route for your children then the next thing you need to think about is home schooling law.
