I really wish I could school my children at home... So far I dont have great experience dealing with teachers and their education... I mean I learnt all about Henry the 8th and his wives at school but it didnt help me get a job, neither did learning about disecting living things!
Great post :)
Thanks, @whatalexdid! You mean nobody ever asked you about Henry VIII in a job interview? LOL. Yeah, memorizing all the presidents of the US in "history class" didn't help me, either.
Exactly my point, the stuff they teach you doesnt help in real world situations!! Here in the UK to take your kid out of school in term time you need permission... We got an opportunity to go to a place in the South of France where they teach kids the importance of hard work and some life lessons... We got denied permission from my kids school as they are too focused on getting their attendance figures as high as possible... It was ridiculous!!
