SECONDARY OPTIONS FOR HOMESCHOOLED TEENS 2022
What are the options for teenagers who choose to home-school through the secondary years? How does NCEA work, and how do home-schoolers access NCEA? What’s Cambridge? Are there other options (like not doing any qualifications and focussing just on great learning)!? How does one enter university as a home-schooler? This Forum will help you work through the myriad of possibilities and options for children opting to be home-educated through the senior years.

The government provides some help – speakers from the Ministry of Education and CCS Disability Services share about the resources that are available to us and how to access these.
