Book Description
A comprehensive guide to learning at home for eleven to eighteen year olds

From the Author
Unqualified Education is the UK's first comprehensive guide to secondary education in the home, and offers practical solutions to many of the difficulties experienced by young people between the ages of eleven and eighteen: it provides a means to make education rewarding and self-fulfilling; it offers a practical alternative to an education based on examinations and qualifications; and it demonstrates how the home offers the perfect environment for combining traditional educational values with the demands of modern life and modern technology.

Most Helpful Customer Reviews   20 of 20 people found the following review helpful: Unqualified brilliance!, 28 Dec 2003 By  Beverley Paine, www.beverleypaine.com (Adelaide, South Australia) - See all my reviews Reviewed by Beverley Paine Beautifully illustrated by Bethan, Wendy and Samuel Lewis, Unqualified Education continues in a similar friendly, down-to-earth, and approachable style to One-to-One: A Practical Guide to Learning at Home, Age 0-11 (watch out for the review and excerpt in the next issue). Unqualified Education is both a parent's guide to home education with an emphasis on self-directed, self-motivated and enthusiastic learning, and a mini-text book, complete with lesson plans, reminiscent of the excellent Waldorf Oak Meadow curriculum books. Gareth covers every subject and offers useful teaching advice, helpful hints, lesson guides, practical information, and clear guidelines that will enrich the learning experience. The fantastic black and white line drawings are delightful and will encourage children to use this book. Ideas and information for studies in Literature, History, Geography, Languages, Science, Technology, Music, Mathematics, Art and Craft can be used as a springboard to further explorations, with Cooking and Gardening covered in two separate chapters. Gareth peppers the text with sensible home educating advice and tips, a devotes a final chapter to practical matters such as Timetables, Curriculum, Qualifications, Work and Employment. Unlike many home education books which list specific resources, the chapter Educational Resources covers the basics, such as the Internet, television, libraries, etc, and how they can be used to enhance your learning program.  Comment | Permalink | Was this review helpful to you?

I'd picked it up hoping to read about peoples experiences with trying to arrange exams whilst still educating children at home. Perhaps I should have read the title properly! This book gives a good argument against taking any exams at all and makes you question why they are seen as so important. I enjoyed this book and, whilst I didn't agree with it all, it certainly opened my eyes to new possibilities and helped me think 'out of the box' regarding qualifications.  Comment | Permalink | Was this review helpful to you?
