Dr Nina Hood: Education Hub Founder on the number of children leaving home schooling

Despite a record number of children leaving home schooling, numbers are still higher than pre-pandemic levels.   Education Ministry figures show 2,286 children exited home schooling last year.   More than half of those leaving had been learning from home for less than a year.   Total homeschool numbers remain above 10,000.   Education Hub founder Dr Nina Hood told Mike Hosking there's probably a combination of factors, including children wanting to go back to school.   She says some of it is also likely about families and parents realising teaching their own children is challenging.  LISTEN ABOVE See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
