Another detailed and well thought out video with stacks of important information. I only wish this had been available when we home schooled our monsters :)

My home ed kids are years off GCSE's but really reassuring to see how many resources are out there if they choose to take the GCSE path...and keep all people who already say "but what about GCSEs?!" quiet.😄 Great vid!

Hi Jenni, thank you so much for your videos. They have been super helpful! Also, please can you let us know if and when your older ones continue with A levels and what resources they will be using for them but, that is only if they choose that path. I'm finding it so hard and a bit lost with resources for A levels. Thank you 😊

Thank you! I’m so glad to hear it has been helpful. I did a whole lot of research into studying A Levels from home over the previous summer as my eldest was seriously considering it. In the end he chose to attend a 6th Form college and is very happy there thank goodness. Some of my younger ones may decide to continue from home, but we’ll see! I found the Facebook group “Home Educating through A-Levels” was very helpful. Best wishes!

@@YesYouCanHomeEducate we just started with them. But so far my add son finds her voice engaging. He is not usually a fan of online courses as focussing can be a struggle. The presentations look and sound non-boring. The owner seems caring and helpful

did your older children do the good and the beautiful before their GCSE'S ? If so was it an easy transition back to a UK curriculum? Did you find any gaps in learning? Thanks 🙂

Hi 👋, I used various KS3 texts including Oxford “Ignite” and Cambridge “Checkpoint” English texts with my older children . They were fine, but I found them a bit frustrating at times as there are no answer books and sometimes there were things we were left unsure of. It could be that I was less confident in those early days. After looking at the Grade 6 (Year 7 UK equivalent) TGATB curriculum I decided to use it for the first time at this KS3 level for my 4th child. Now that I have a little experience with my older 3, I was happy that it covers all the aspects of English language plus some literature to prepare them for IGCSEs. You also get an answer key which makes it easier to deliver as a home educator and saves so much time. My older children all followed Ks3 studies with Catherine Mooney’s Pre- IGCSE course before embarking on IGCSE but it’s not strictly necessary, as the IGCSE course is a complete course. If you feel they need a little extra practice and prep, the pre IGCSE course is good. It’s worth looking at the free. TGATB pdfs to help you decide. One thing I really like is that they teach essay form from early on. That was something I did not find in the ks3 textbooks I mentioned above. Hope that helps ☺️

The first thing I would say you need to make sure of is that your chosen subject is 100% exam based. Some I/GCSEs take account of course work which requires independent marking, which is tricky to organise as a home educated student. Alternatively, there may be some course providers that can arrange for that independent marking but you need to make sure. Edexcel IGCSEs are popular choices for maths and the sciences as they are exam based only. I talk more about these things and point you to where you can find out more in my video “Home Educating Teenagers|Studies and Exams” kzitem.info/news/bejne/2p96mmSbm4RhZnosi=jriNQa1XyM0I3QoB
