So the teaching is done by groups of families, presumably all with kids of around the same age, and where each parent teaches what ever they specialise in? I guess I could teach my kids maths, history and geography but lord help them if I had to teach them English or languages!

I just picture some poor kid being given an education by their well meaning parent(s) and ending up handicapped because of it - I guess it all depends on the parents doing the teaching and whether they want to broaden the horizons of their kids or just hide them from the world.

Schooling in the UK also has it's problems and many families (mine included) take time to add to their kids knowledge as well as sending their kids to Saturday schools or getting private tuition. I'm simply curious about home schooling though I don't see it as an end solution in itself.
