saw Posted January 8, 2010 Share Posted January 8, 2010 who can point me in the right direction for resources? My son started homeschooling this week (of course, we were still on vacation, so I completely forgot that, technically speaking, we started back to school!) after being in a British School. The reason for pulling him out is that we are moving to Paris (from Amsterdam) and will not be putting him back in a school for a while. The National Curriculum has worked very well for him, however, so I would like to continue with it. All of my research on homeschool resources up until now has focussed on US-based materials, which I will be using with my dds, so I feel comfortable with that end of things. Thanks!

Laura Corin Posted January 8, 2010 Share Posted January 8, 2010 (edited) One UK publisher that I really like is Galore Park. They have samples of the first chapter of their books on their website. They are used in UK private schools, rather than state schools, so the books tend to be a bit advanced. It's worth looking at the samples to make sure that your son won't be overwhelmed by the level. We use their English, maths, French and Latin; I've also heard good things about their history and science. I also use the Bond Assessment Papers - they are good for working out where your son is and what help he might need, as well as for keeping old material fresh. bookdepository.co.uk carries both Galore Park and Bond, and will ship to you for free.
