Demand soars for active home education resources amid government debates

As discussions intensify around the Children's Wellbeing and Schools Bill, a new education company is addressing the rising demand for quality home education resources. Hands-OnEducation.com, founded by experienced teacher Jeanie Fair, offers innovative, activity-based learning materials for primary school-aged children.

The launch comes as government data shows a significant increase in home education, with an estimated 126,000 children being home-educated during the 2022-23 academic year.

"When I began home educating my sons, I found a lack of engaging, hands-on resources," said Fair. "Children learn best through activities, exploration, and play. Our platform fills this gap, providing materials that both parents and teachers are eagerly seeking."
