UK Homeschool Families Look Into the Face of Totalitarianism


A newly announced homeschooling law in the UK would force parents to open their homes to community agents sent to inspect homeschool curriculums. I can’t tell if this “announced” law is “new” or “proposed” … the article is Crackdown on home-schooling as parents face annual checks and registration.

In the UK government agents don’t have access to private homes unless there’s a crime in progress… yet homeschooling families would be subjected to forced in-home inspections by officials.

Amy Newstead of Education Otherwise stated that “Parents have emailed me saying they were typing in tears…”

I’d be crying too. Governments that are too repressive instill a self-protective attitude of rebellion in their citizens. It is a terrible way to live.
