In this time of Covid and lockdown, it’s been interesting to see the change in some of the ways in which we communicate. At one end of the spectrum, local communities are coming together and friendships are being formed amongst neighbours. At the other end, those from across the country - and even the globe - are able to come together via platforms such as Zoom.

One such example of this was the Learn Free home educators’ conference. This is usually held in Coventry but as this was now not possible the organiser, Juliet English, took a leap into the world of virtual conferences. In this way, many more were able to benefit from four days of talks, online topic-themed chats and small group Zoom meet ups.

It was wonderful to have a UK based conference, with the benefit of some international speakers too. There was quite a buzz around the community board and how lovely to “meet” some other home educating mums.

So, come and join us as we share some of our highlights. The talks are on the conference app for six months, so it is possible to join now and listen at your leisure ... cup of tea in hand, of course!
