What country are people homeschooled?

-Hi, i live in London and i have never heard of people being homeschooled but then theres a section Home Schooling and loads of people write in it so i was wondering, in america do loads of people get homeschooled or what countries is it popular home schooling?Home Schooling (or Home Education as we call it in the UK) is gaining in popularity all the time. There are Home Education groups in just about every part of the Country, Yahoo Groups, Also google Then UK, HE-UK, Education Otherwise , Hesfes to name a few.



Home Education gives Parents another option apart from the usual State or Private School choices. People home educate their children for any number of reasons such as lifestyle choice, child not happy at School, or dissatisfaction with School system etc.



Home Schooling is very popular in America, and is also an option in many other Countries such as Australia and Canada too.There are very few countries in which home school is illegal. Germany and Sweden are 2 that come to mind immediately. I have seen quite a few post from people in the UK as well as some from Australia. In America it is estimated at over 2 million families but since laws differ from state to state it would be hard to get an exact number. Not all states require the parent send in any notice that they are home schooling.
You can get home schooled pretty much in any country...
Wow.



Loads of people in the UK are homeschooled. I'm startled you could live here and have never even heard of it.
