Ofsted Home Education Report Seriously Flawed Says Graham Stuart MP
Graham Stuart MP, who last week was elected to take the Chair of the Commons Education Select Committee, today condemned Ofsted’s report on home education, “Local Authorities and Home Education” as “an unpleasant hangover of the last government: a manifesto for more state power at the expense of dedicated home educators and their children”.
Mr Stuart went on, “It is astonishing that the Chief Inspector of Schools should stray onto home education and get it so wrong. In Ofsted’s official press release she says that “it is extremely challenging for local authorities to meet their statutory duty to ensure children have a suitable education”, when they have no such duty. Parents, not the state, have the statutory duty to ensure that their children have a suitable education.
“I find it deeply concerning that, after months of work, the Chief Inspector should make such a basic mistake and so utterly confuse the duties of local authorities and parents. Parents who home educate deserve our respect and awe at their dedication and achievements, not the relentless suspicion of an over mighty state.”
Under section 436A of the Education Act 1996, inserted by the Education and Inspections Act 2006, local authorities have a duty to identify children who are not receiving a suitable education in their area, so far as it is practical to do so. As the 2007 Elective Home Education Guidelines for Local Authorities make clear, however, ‘local authorities have no statutory duties in relation to monitoring the quality of home education on a routine basis’ and are only required to intervene if it appears that parents are not providing a suitable education.
Mr Stuart went on, “As local authorities do not have the power to demand access to home educated children and cannot insist on parents registering with them, the obvious and correct answer is for local authorities to improve their support for families so that more families make contact with them voluntarily. If they did this and made sure that they employed sympathetic staff who built good reputations, then the number of “unknown” children would be reduced. Such a positive approach would respect the primacy of parents in determining the education of their children and put the onus on local authorities to serve and support, rather than catalogue and monitor, families who home educate.
“Ofsted’s report has little to say about improving local authority support for home educated children and says only that the Department of Education should “consider” funding an entitlement for home-educated children to take public examinations. Ofsted’s report is seriously flawed and damaging to the confidence of home educating parents who had hoped that the relentless disinformation and bullying of the previous regime was over.”

Q31 How does the local authority let families know about the services provided to support them in home educating their children? (List all approaches used)
Advice about HE voluntary organisations, e.g. Education Otherwise, etc.
Q32 Following the initial assessment visit, are further monitoring visits made to a home educated child?
Yes
Q33 If yes, how often, on average, are these carried out?
Once a year.
Q34 Please use this space to add detail to the answer you have just given
On rare occasions families decline a home visit or a meeting at a neutral location but respond to enquiries about the education they offer in a written report or a completed questionnaire. Face to face contact at any location occurs annually but more often when the need arises.
Q35 On average, how often is the child seen when a visit is made?
Usually, but not always
Q36 Please use this space to add detail to the answer you have just given
Some families decline visits and a few view it as an intrusion. There is no legal requirement placed on home educating families to allow visits and some choose to engage with the local authority via report or questionnaire. This lack of legal requirement makes contact between the local authority and, for example, the traveller community, difficult in some cases. However, most children are seen during a visit.
Q37 If the child is seen, where is s/he usually seen?
In the home.
Q38 Please use this space to add detail to the answer you have just given
Most – but not all – families are happy to meet the HEO and allow the officer to meet the child. Most visits are in the home, but other venues, eg libraries are occasionally used.
Q39 If you are not permitted access to a child, is any further action taken?
Yes
Q40 If yes, what further steps are taken?
This depends on the circumstances. A quick follow-up visit may be possible and it is important to maintain and build on trust, confidence and good relationships. A meeting where a child has not been seen will always trigger further enquiries, possibly including CME/EWS or Children’s Social Care, and in rare cases instigate a police visit for a safe and well check. A GOOD REASON NOT TO ALLOW A VISIT
Q41 How is the suitability of the education provided to the child assessed? (Please describe)
Suitability is assessed primarily through the evidence of education being offered in numeracy, literacy, science, ICT, problem solving and physical development. The HEO is a qualified and experienced teacher.
Q42 Is the local authority clear about what the definition of a 'suitable education' is?
Yes
Q43 Please use this space to add detail to the answer you have just given
Suitable education has been defined in case law as achieving what it sets out to achieve and families have to educate their children to take their place in their community (not society as a whole).
Q44 Does the local authority have systems in place to track the educational progress of home educated children?
Yes
HEO post is relatively new (4 terms). Systems to track progress are established and will develop over time.
Q46 Of the home educated children in your area of whom you have knowledge, what proportion (as a percentage) in your estimation is receiving a suitable, full time (20hrs a week) education? (Please describe)
72% currently assessed as suitable. Other cases are not necessarily unsuitable, but include:
those currently under consideration, eg awaiting further information or follow-up visit;
those awaiting first visits;
those involving hard-to-reach families (eg travellers on the move).
Q47 Does the local authority take any further steps if a home educated child's education was found to be unsuitable or not full time?
Yes
Advice given regarding improving provision. Follow-up visit scheduled for 4-8 weeks. If there is no improvement, the case is referred to EWS for a return to school.
Q49 Does the local authority face any challenges in assessing whether home educated children receive a suitable education?
Yes
Q50 If you answered yes to Q49, please describe the challenges and what you think could be done to overcome these
Since the law does not require families to notify the local authority of intention to home educate when they withdraw their child or children from school, this relies on the school being aware of their responsibility to notify the local authority. Nor does the law require families to notify the local authority if children are under school age and have never been registered in a school, so the child simply can be unknown to the local authority.
If families do not have to meet the local authority, the information which they might submit, eg in a report, is not necessarily verifiable, making it difficult for the local authority to come to a view on suitability of education.
It might be in children’s best interests if all HE families had a duty to notify the local authority of their intentions to home educate their child(ren), and to provide some regular information about the education being provided, eg what they intended to achieve and how they would monitor their success in achieving it.
Q51 Thinking about your local area, in the last five years, how many cases have you come across that use the premise of home education as a 'cover' for child abuse, forced marriage or other aspects of child neglect?
Nil
Q52 Please use this space to add detail to the answer you have just given. Please include the number of Serious Case Reviews you know about that have a home education element.
There have been a few cases where a home educated child has been the subject of child protection concerns: this is probably statistically inevitable. There is no evidence that Home Education has been used in a deliberate attempt to cover up child abuse. There have been no Serious Case Reviews with home education as an element.
Q53 Do you think the current system for safeguarding children who are educated at home is adequate?
Don't know.
Q54 Please use this space to add detail to the answer you have just given
There is a possible safeguarding risk if the local authority has no power to see the child on a regular basis when assessing the education. Children who attend school are seen on a daily basis, the regular contact allowing a strong safeguard in itself. For any child, local authorities can only take safeguarding action if there were reasonable cause to believe a child is suffering significant harm. In such cases the local authority would need to take into account where the child is educated, as this affects how much contact the child has outside the family and who else sees the child on a regular basis.
Q55 Do you think that home educated children in your local authority are able to achieve the five Every Child Matters outcomes? Please say why you think that for each of the five outcomes
This is dependent on the ethos of each family. Largely it is not possible to predict. There appears to be no legal requirement on parents to achieve the five outcomes for their children.
Q56 Do you think there should be any changes made to the current system for supporting home educating families?
Don't know
Q57 Please use this space to add detail to the answer you have just given
See answer to Q50 and Q54 above.
Q58 Do you think there should be any changes made to the current system for monitoring home educating families and ensuring that home educated children are able to achieve the five outcomes?

Becta and 11 million to go?
Wednesday, 12 May 2010
Department For Education
Well I am tentatively pleased with the outcome of the General Election, Bruce is worried that the poor the sick and the vulnerable will suffer but I am biding my time and holding my judgement.
The first bit of really good news is the demise of the DCSF and I am churlish enough to wish for a few members of staff to find themselves jobless.

The Next Battle - Going Local
Going to talk to Leicestershire EHE advisor tonight with a group of other he ers. Hope I will be able to keep my cool. One main thing I want answering is who is responsible for their policy and documents? No point arguing with someone who actually doesn't have a say. (Must remember to listen to myself for a change.)
We did respond to their consultation last year but I fear that very little of what we said has been taken on board. I have been avoiding finding out for the sake of my blood pressure but needs must, so if nothing else going will make me read their documents here. Just look at the links you have to follow to get there, You are here: Home > Education > Going to School > Elective Home Education, it makes my blood boil! (Calm down dear, it's only an abuse and waste of hard earned taxpayers money!)
Well I am going to try and mostly listen; yes Bruce laughed too when he heard that. I won't even have read all the documents, a lovely sunny afternoon is beckoning and I think the garden deserves some attention. I need to see this as a long haul, I am in good company many others will now be taking this on in order to make sure we have a more level playing field for the nextattack supportive consultation. It does not help that the first thing I run into is the dratted Ever Child Matters nonsense quoted totally inappropriately, sigh.
Will endeavour to keep this site updated with my endeavours
Would be very interested to know what others are doing and perhaps link to it here.

Wow we have Won the Battle
Ok maybe we have to still keep up our guard, continue to educate people and promote home ed but I think we very much deserve to celebrate.
So lets all Engish and Welsh home educators raise our glasses tonight at nine thirty and congratulate ourselves and fellow home edders for a fantastic result. Of course we have to thank our supporters in Scotland and Canada and elsewhere and hope they and any and all home educators will join us. Please could you share a photo here so we can all share each others celebrations.
The first indication that all would be well came with a notification of amendments to the Children Schools and Families Bill, the second when Ed published his open letter to Michael Gove. Then the conservatives published it and finally the DCSF themselves.
We are of course very happy that Ed isn't and I expect the other parties are delighted with this piece of propaganda on their behalf, so generous!
So cheers me dears, , the fat lady hath sungeth and the balls bill has shrunk in the wash up, for sure, oh happy day. Tonight we celebrate. Woo hoo! Woo hoo!
