Call To Register Home-Schooled Children
//Children taught at home should be recorded on a compulsory register, England's children's commissioner has said.
The number of children home-schooled is "rocketing" and "no-one knows how they are doing academically, or even if they're safe" Anne Longfield said.
Her report estimates almost 60,000 pupils were taught at home at any one time in 2018.
She also had concerns about provision for special educational needs (SEN).//
I think this has to be done. It seems ridiculous that children in school are monitored so closely – to the extent that parents are fined for taking them on holiday during term time – and yet so many children are off the radar permanently.

"maladjusted to the 'real world' often not being able to take criticism or mix well with their peers"
I find this is because they are raised and taught in the family, the don't interact whit hundreds of different unique children day to day to get a grasp of different character or social interactions. I find being around many alike yourself can help you understand and learn about yourself.

My friend home-schools her child. She is a trained teacher with degrees coming out of her ears. From what I can see on her FB page her son meets many children from all sorts of cultures and has had experiences that other kids don't get.
I don't know if they on any register or if they should be. If the inspector came round to their house to check up on what the boy is learning they'd probably be out in the woods or at a museum or speaking Japanese or Arabic to fellow home-schoolers.

That's it though Clover, not every home teacher is a certified teacher, and not all home teacher have degrees. Home teaching can be good to get away from school issues, but if you as a home teaching parent have issues, then you'll simply be passing those on
This is why home schooled kids should be registered and checked.

I appreciate that Home schooling is,in some circumstances,unavoidable in other circumstances it is.It surely isn't right that a school head can take a subjective view to exclude children simply because they cannot be bothered to find a solution and their problem is not properly diagnosed but if a child has been diagnosed with autism or whatever this brings money into the school and thus they bend over backwards to keep this child in school in spite of their behaviour.
