Owen's GCSEs & College

Over the past 2 years Owen has been working on passing GCSEs for college.  It is fairly common for home educated children to start taking their GCSEs early and then take a few a year rather than take them all in year 11.  This is partly due to cost as home educated families have to pay for their children to sit GCSE and the average cost is around £150 per GCSE.  Home educators also need to find the time and resources to guide their children through the GCSE which takes a great deal of time and planning.  We discovered that a good knowledge of the mark scheme is pretty much as important as covering the actual content.  There are very specific ways of answering questions in order to obtain good marks.  The HE Exams WIKI is an excellent resource for home educated children wishing to sit formal exams.

Owen has managed to pass all the GCSEs required for his college course with good grades.  He will be studying BTEC Computing and A Level Maths at college.  Our home education journey with Owen is now complete and has been an rewarding and incredibly wonderful experience.

Anya passed a couple of GCSEs this year and will take a few more next year with the hope of being offered a place into music college.
