Elective Home Education

ADCS has been surveying local authorities since 2016 to capture the number and characteristics of children and young people who are known to be home educated. The surveys have developed to understand the reasons behand a family’s decision to home educate, how LAs across the country are supporting these families, and how available resources are being deployed in this area.
The 2020 survey results will be available in late November.
