On selected days throughout the year we host sessions just for home educators! There are two types of Home Educator day – Key Stages 2 & 3 days, and Key Stage 4 “experiment” days.
Extra dates for your diary: 7th January and 15th July 2013 are More Able and Talented (MAT) days – more details to follow.
