Home school: a good
thing or a bad thing?
Some children don’t go to school. Well, they
don’t learn in a classroom with a lot of other
children; they stay at home and study with their
mum or dad. They don’t learn at home because
they have to, but because some parents think
their children don’t learn enough at normal
schools.
‘School isn’t good for my son,’ says Miranda
Peeler, who teaches her son, Ben, at home. ‘Ben
doesn’t work in class. He plays with his friends
all the time and he doesn’t listen to the teacher.
There are 30 children in his class, and it’s difficult
for the teacher to teach ALL of them. Now I
teach him at home. He learns all the important
subjects and he does a lot of work. He has to;
he’s the only one in the class! We study on
the computer too. At school there is only one
computer for all the children in the class. Ben
likes home school. He’s a clever boy and he
wants to learn. Here he can do that.’
Brenda Masters is a teacher. She doesn’t think
it’s a good idea. ‘Yes, children learn a lot at home
school. But they don’t play with their friends.
They don’t learn how to work in a group. Work
is important but play is important too. Friends
are important. Sport is important. School is
important!’
