Chat About Home Ed and the Bill We welcome back Katie Finlayson - who could probably go on Mastermind with the Children's Wellbeing and Schools Bill as her specialist subject - to understand more about "The Bill". In this chat, we hear from Katie when the Bill might become law, what happens then and when it might start being something that home educating families need to respond to. We have kept the chat focused mostly on what is known now, with a bit of what things might look like for existing home educators, and those who are considering it. We'll bring Katie back later this year when the consultation on regulations kicks off but in the meantime, we hope this Chat About, helps you feel better informed and reassured about the timing of any changes. There are lots of sources out there if you want to keep up to date with the progress of the Bill and any regulations that come from it, and how to communicate with people working on them. Here are a few that we use: But first, here's where you can remind yourself of the opening titles of The Bill if you're really needing to get that straight in your head first: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9dHvlO8v66c Government bill page: https://bills.parliament.uk/bills/3909 EdYourself for home education focused info: https://edyourself.org/childrens-wellbeing-schools-bill/ HEA substack for political action steps: https://homeeducationaction.substack.com https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=hgdTMxW5Wzw&pp=iggCQAE%3D
