For families educating children aged 6 to 16 at home
You’re home educating.
We make sure it’s working.
You teach. We set the direction, review the evidence, and tell you honestly where you stand.
Every enquiry is answered personally by the Education Director within one working day.
Week 3
Years 4 to 5 level
This week
- Maths. Fractions of amounts, pages 42 to 44
- Reading. Chapter 6, then two questions
- Science. Dissolving: salt, sugar, sand. Predict first.
- Writing. Diary entry, one paragraph, past tense
From the Director
Reading is ahead, so stretch the questions. Keep maths short and daily. Skip the writing if Friday is heavy; we’ll pick it up next week.

The Friday feeling
Most home educating parents are carrying three things at once.
None of them is a failing. They are what happens when one person is asked to be the teacher, the head, and the inspector at the same time.
No plan
You have books, printables and a dozen browser tabs open. What you don't have is a week you can sit down and follow on Monday morning.
No benchmark
Is your child where they should be? Ahead? Behind? Nobody has told you, and it isn't obvious who you would even ask.
No one to ask
The 9pm question. Am I doing enough. Am I doing it wrong. You've asked a forum. What you wanted was an answer from someone qualified.
If that sounds familiar, you are the family this was built for.
Why the plan is individual
Every child is different. The plan should be too.
Children learn at different rates, and at different rates in different subjects. A nine-year-old can be two years ahead in maths and at age level in reading. The year group printed on a curriculum tells you very little about the child in front of you.
So we don’t start with a curriculum. We start with your child, and build an individual learning plan around where they are and how they learn. Then we keep adjusting it.
- 1
Baseline first
Before anything is planned, we find out where your child actually is. Reading, maths fluency, and a conversation with you about how they learn.
- 2
Built for the child, not the year group
The plan is written for your child. Faster where they are ready, slower where they need it, subject by subject.
- 3
Adjusted on evidence
What you log each week tells us what landed. The plan changes as the child changes. That is the point of it.
The mechanics
How it works
- 1
Baseline
A light-touch look at where your child is now, and a conversation with you.
- 2
Programme
An individual learning plan, delivered in weekly instalments. What to cover, what to use, how to know it landed.
- 3
Your week
You teach. Between thirty minutes and a couple of hours a day, depending on age. You log what you did as you go.
- 4
Review
The Education Director reviews the evidence, tells you what is working, and adjusts the plan.
Your record
A record of what you've done.
Everything you log becomes a continuous record of your child’s provision. What was covered, the work they produced, what landed and what didn’t.
It is your record. It sits under your control, it is shared at your discretion, and it can be exported or deleted whenever you ask.
There is currently no legal requirement in England to keep records of home education. Many families keep one anyway, because it is the quickest way to answer the question “what have we actually done?”

Record
Week 3 of 15
This week’s evidence
- TueMaths. Fractions of amounts. Method secure; slow on 3/8 of 56. Two photos of the working.
- WedScience. Dissolving. Predicted sand would dissolve, then asked about hot water. Trying it tomorrow.
- ThuReading. Chapter 6 in one sitting. Retold it in order without prompting.
Director’s review, Friday
Reading has moved on. Next week’s plan stretches the questions and keeps maths short and daily.
Fit
Who this is for
- You took your child out of school in the last year or so, and you are still working out what a good week looks like.
- School wasn't working. Anxiety, refusal, needs that weren't being met. Home is the option you have, not the one you planned.
- You want structure and rigour for your child, without a school. You are prepared to do the teaching if someone sets the direction.
And not
Who this is not for
If you are home educating autonomously, following your child’s interests without a set programme, this isn’t for you and we won’t pretend otherwise. We set direction. That is the service.
The Education Director
Zaehid Hakim
Zaehid home educates his own children. He knows what it is to look at a week of work on a Friday and wonder whether it was enough.
He has also spent twenty years in two regulated professions, optometry and pharmacy, where you are held to an evidenced standard. That is the discipline he brings to overseeing a child’s education. He does not hold Qualified Teacher Status, and he will tell you plainly why the oversight model does not need it.
One step, no obligation
Arrange your child's review
Tell us about your child and what your week looks like. The Education Director will reply personally, with an honest view of where you stand and what would help.
Answered personally within one working day. No sales call.
