I deliver free workshops and assemblies on different areas of sustainability, including food, fashion, the 3Rs (Reduce, Re-use and Recycle), composting and litter. This could be anything from running a paper-making workshop with SEN (Special Educational Needs) children to delivering an assembly on litter or working with secondary schools on re-use art projects.

Flexi schooling is where, with the heads permission, your child is enrolled in a school as normal but you are allowed to educate your child 'offsite' for an agreed amount of time, eg, we will be educating our daughter at home every Friday.

Below is quite an informative article on the subject;

Hi Laura,

I home educate and know a few people in Haringey who do so to. In fact, we have just started a group that will be based in Crouch Hill.

Hi Ana,

We are looking to home educate our son aged 9. Do you by any chance have any contact details of groups of parents who get together in the Muswell Hill/Crouch End area? Or could we ring you for some advice please?
