When we decided to add another section to our website we wanted to maintain our three principles, namely to:-

Arouse young people's curiosity
Ignite their imagination
Release their creativity

When we read from top to bottom, we discovered we had the school of the air. Obviously Owlbut and Colin were really happy as they spend much of their time in the air

The whole purpose of this part of our site is to provide an innovative, fun, learning resource for those who have chosen to educate their children at home. Obviously the material can be used in a conventional school environment but our aim is to provide for home educators.

It is not a complete educational package. Space should be made to learn other topics, other skills. However, we have chosen to focus on three subjects outside the main core ones of Maths, English and Science, namely History, Nature and the Natural World and Geography. Literacy and Numeracy skills will be improved using our material anyway.

Our decision to have Nature and the Natural World as one topic is also part of our aim to get more children to go outside and be aware of the incredible beauty that is not only all around them but also almost certainly on their own doorstep. The same can also be said of History and Geography.

We will be catering for children from the Early Years up to age 13 but, please remember, every child develops at a different speed and in a different way. Being able to allow for that is one of the beauties of home educating. You can decide what level your child is.

You can now find out a little bit more info or check out the full programme.
