HEN Ireland October 2006
Home  -  About us  -  Contact us  -  Learn about HE

We drafted a number of responses to the Educational Welfare Bill.

The
first response was drafted in September 1999 and sent to all TDs.

We sent a
second response to the 20ish TDs who have some expertise or
interest in Education; advocating a Home Education Advisory Council as a
possible interface between Home Educators and society.

And a
third response was sent to the Joint Oireachtas Committee on Education
and other TDs active on the Education front; lamenting the fact that the E(W)B
shoehorns home education into legislation appropriate to deal with truancy and
that the legislators have failed to seek information about HE or consult with
experts in or practitioners of HE.
