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!’
