Maintain Routine
One piece of advice we have for parents is to keep to a set routine. Children thrive from structure, and it gives them a sense of normality. With their education it ensures that they are up to speed and can make continued progress as regular practice is key for improvement. Choose Wisely
Parents who aren’t so confident teaching can also take the home-schooling route, given that they have an internet connection and the relevant equipment. Online schools provide children high quality education and class support, except from home. However, they are not all made equal and there are some better than others, so we recommend doing your research before choosing an online learning platform.Make Use of The Flexibility
Another tip is to make use of the flexibility you have. As your child is not in formal education, you have complete control over the trips they go on. You can provide your child a plethora of educational activities and help them learn according to their unique learning style.Fit Time in for Exercise
Exercise is important for both physical and mental health. It also provides the brain oxygen and can give children a well needed break from being sat at their desk for a prolonged period of time.Social Interaction
A lack of social interaction is something that concerns parents when they think of home schooling, however, it is something easily made possible through finding a study buddy, online forums or an online school that prioritises contact and student support.The key takeaway here is to make sure that there are systems in place for good teaching and to also ensure that children have the opportunity to experience school life as they would do at school.
