For one thing, the largest jump in numbers happens between Primary and Secondary education.<br /><br />Much of the increase between primary and secondary HEers in the study may be accounted for by cultural/philosophical reasons. 3 of the 9 LAs selected for the study included high proportions of children from Gypsy, Roma and Traveller backgrounds (they were chosen for this reason). In one county over half of the known children were from this group. Of the children whose ethnicity was known, 23% were from this group. These three LAs alone accounted for 79% of the increase in numbers between primary and secondary education. I believe there is a cultural tendency for this group to send children to school for the primary years and then withdraw them from the system (especially girls). If this is the case, nearly all will be known to the LA. These families are of course home educating for philosophical reasons and are not 'reactive' home educators.<br /><br />Gradually over the years, home educators who have never used schools will become known to the LA and will make up part of these increased numbers. The secondary age students will include those 'found' throughout the primary and secondary years so the numbers will build year on year if they remain home educated. It's also possible that older children are more likely to be reported to the LA by medical staff and other people they come into contact with. They may be asked for details of their new school when it's realised that they are old enough to have moved up, for instance.<br /><br />Logic suggests that unknown home educators are more likely to be home educating for philosophical reasons as the majority are probably unknown because they have never registered with a school. If Badman's estimate is correct there are 3 times as many unknown HEers than known. The study figures will be biased towards children who have been de-registered from school; towards children who have had problems with the system.<br /><br />Obviously many begin home educating because of problems at school but many of these go on to become home educators by choice and wouldn't use schools even if the problems were solved so they move from 'reactive' to 'proactive' home educators. Many have also said that they would have home educated sooner if they had known it was a legal option. <br /><br />In all the meetings I've attended where the question has been asked, the majority have said that they are unknown to their LEA and most of these were parents of children aged between 5 and 12. At the last meeting I attended only 2 of about 12 families were known.Sharonnoreply@blogger.com
