    Today, we’re chatting with Lizi, an ex primary school teacher who quit teaching and decided that she won’t be sending her daughter to school. (Unless maybe if she asks to go in the future!!)
    Stay tuned for some very fascinating insight into primary schools!

    Here’s a breakdown of the conversation:
    01:12 - What was your experience of school as a child?
    02:43 - What qualifications did you get to be able to teach?
    03:33 - What got you into teaching?
    05:04 - Did your dyslexia affect your teaching?
    09:25 - Best and worst bits of teaching?
    11:16 - How long were you a teacher?
    12:00 - Thoughts on how much they can move?
    12:50 - Screen time in schools
    17:40 - How much time did they get outside?
    19:55 - Socialisation!
    25:30 - Thoughts on GCSE’s
    30:18 - Ofsted experiences
    34:51 - How many children are in a class?
    35:16 - Why did you quit teaching and choose to home educate?
    37:42 - Would you let your daughter go to school?
    40:12 - Are there any elements from school you’ll incorporate into your home educating?
    41:07 - Will you follow the curriculum?
    42:15 - Thoughts on the children’s wellbeing and schools bill?
    49:40 - What does a rough week in your home ed life look like?
    54:30 - How do you non judgmentally tell others about your choice to home educate?
    1:04:30 - Any tips/advice?

  • What is Real Life and how do we prepare our kids for it?
    2025/03/29

    Send us a text

    Today, we’re discussing real life, or adult life and what our children REALLY need to know to thrive as adults.
    We’re planning to sack of the national curriculum and write our own that we believe will provide our kids with the foundation they need when they leave home, all with space to follow their passions and hopefully one day attain the job of their dreams.
    We’ll be discussing what typical days look like, what every human needs to know and how we teach these core skills.
