Government to still fund GCSEs for Home educated children

Government to still fund GCSEs for Home educated children — 21 signatures. Status: rejected.

Petition background

At present government states that as soon as you withdraw your child from main stream school you the parent are responsible for funding all educational needs . We ask that the government still provide all children no matter where they are educated with their GCSEs

Additional details

Unfortunately the School setting is not suitable for every child . And those not suited for school life actually do better in the home environment . Most home educated children are actually ready to take their GCSEs a lot earlier than they would if at school .All we ask is that the government please fund these childrens GCSEs . Every child should still receive their GCSEs for free no matter where they are educated .
