Could you please take a few moments to participate in this very important survey?
Iβm getting in touch to share a short survey we are running with the Open University, exploring why families are choosing elective home education and flexi-schooling, and what support they would find most useful. Iβm working as a research assistant to Lord Nigel Crisp on this project, supporting the work closely with the wider group.
With the deadline on Monday 4 May, weβre keen to increase responses and would really appreciate your help in sharing it with your networks. The findings will help inform policymakers and highlight lived experiences and best practice within home-educating and flexi-schooling communities.
