If you are starting out home educating or home schooling your children, or maybe just thinking about it, and have more questions, then this is the Twinkl video for you! Taking those first steps and deregistering your child, or deciding not to take up that reception place, is often the start of a family’s home education journey but it can leave parents feeling overwhelmed. This informative video from Krissy Twinkl outlines the answers to the top five most asked questions over in our Twinkl Home Ed Facebook Group and she also shares lots of tips and advice for getting started with home ed.

The video also offers a window into Krissy’s home ed day as she takes us with her and shows us what a typical day home educating looks like for her.
