Old man trying to be as best a teacher I can be. Hailing from sunny Leicestershire, I'm interested in most things educational. Thinking about what a Democratic education system could look like.

Not only is Katie an expert in this area, she is a lovely person as well. She is even infinitrely patient with an unsociable pain like me!
This is a talk from ResearchEd National in 2023 - an intro to the world of home education, what we do know, and what - in my view - would be interesting to find out. If you are like me and prefer to read (and skim if need be!), here you go: learnwhatyoulive.substack.com/p/home-educa...

Imo the main reason #edutwitter hasn't moved here is because the DfE, Ofsted and other government departments don't see it as a useful form of communication with people who work in public services. It's a blank spot in their ability to understand the situation and personally I think it's a shame.

When I first got into research-informed practice, I was starry-eyed at its potential. Now, it's just a complete mess of egos and dogma. Completely disillusioned by the general atmosphere if it.
