Is anyone in the area home-schooling secondary school-aged children? I have a small batch of them who were supposed to be starting in Year 7 but haven't got places at present and so until such a time as they are offered a place at a school I'm happy with, I am resigned to home-schooling.


I've just joined Education Otherwise but it would be good to make contact with local home-schooling families asap...

I am in similar situation,my son has been waiting since last September for a place to become available at kingsdale in dulwich.He is now second on the list but with no time frame to when he will start.We have been home schooling,but I am desperate for him to meet up with other kids in a similar situation whether it is for lessons,educational days out or just socially.Maybe we could sort something out,I have a good collection of key stage 3 books in most subjects but would like Alfie( my son)to get used to having lessons with other kids as it has been quite an isolating year for him.

Look forward to hearing from you and any one else in the same situation.

My daughter is of year 6 age and we have been home schooling her since half way through year 4. She is likely to be going to seniors school next year however this last year or so of HE has been fantastic. I would suggest looking at the situations as an opportunity to give them something a little different, if it is only for a short while.


London is absolutely full of HE'rs and there is plenty for them to do. A good starting point would be to join SLHE google group. This group is for HE only matter/issues/questions however it is a good place to start. You will have to request to join so I would advise that you just say you are home schooling and for the moment might be best not to mention that you hope its temporary! Not a huge issue but they have a policy of ensuring that only genuine HE families join the group, which is fair enough.

Hope this helps and I'm happy to help answer any general questions re HE

      Great news! Peckham Rye station to reclaim its public square by next year!

      The big difference, other than increasingly flaking paint, seems to be graffiti. The question is, will that/ can it be controlled?

      Nasty kids in Peckham Park

      I took back my 🤣 because I think the idea is unworkable expensive and would produce little result.  There seems to be people in the office next to the toilet but I don’t think they leave the office. I’m not sure what they do there.  The toilets have been in a disgusting state for months and months with many promises to repair they are not functional and they invite vandalism. I shall  try to add a couple of photos. The council doesn’t care why should we?

      Nasty kids in Peckham Park

      By first mate · Posted

      There will always be kids pushing the envelope as the saying goes, but having some boundaries should help most understand what they can and cannot do. I think dedicated, daily park wardens is exactly what is required...with a hotline to SNT teams on the beat. Is there no way money made from Gala or from Park parking fees can be diverted to provide that funding? I feel it would be a really good use of money. The principle aim being to maintain the park as a safe and relaxing environment for all. If funding really cannot be found I wonder if there might be funding to at least train volunteer park wardens?
