Home schooling.

[Paul]

Madgirl151 you've got my full respect.
I used to help single parents set up PC's for home use when they were home tutoring.
A charity based in Dorset, now defunct thanks to the local education committee.

Off subject a bit, hope you don't mind.
I never speak bad of home tutoring. I was raised with a lad who didn't "do school". Branded a complete waste of space and a trouble maker his school threw him out aged 11.

Then some bright spark psychologist tested his general IQ. (145) with his spacial IQ (160). That's genius level.
He ended up being taught at home by his single parent dad (a brick layer).

He got offered an apprenticeship as a marine engineer in 1973.
Qualified in half the time it normally takes and ended up a chief engineering officer, a roving trouble shooter, on mega tankers.

It took him 5 years to read a paper back yet he'll draw you a complex diagram of a ships propulsion system AND the control electronics before your very eyes. EVERY damn ship he's ever worked on.

Every now and then , I get a letter from him. Takes me about a week to decipher his writing but does that really matter?

Sometimes I think school education is over rated.
If you don't fit their "perfect" little mold, they just don't want to know.

As I said though Madgirl151, Respect to you.
