Home Education by Age and Special Interests

Explore our collection of activities, ideas, and resources tailored for different ages and learning adventures. From sensory play with toddlers to exam preparation with teenagers, plus our special passion for living Tudor history at Kentwell Hall.

Early Years Home Education (Ages 0-5)

The magic of early learning happens through play, exploration, and following your child’s natural curiosity. These formative years are about creating rich environments where learning flows naturally through everyday adventures – no formal lessons required, just lots of wonder and discovery together.

Primary Years Home Education (Ages 6-11)

Primary years bring the perfect balance of hands-on exploration and gentle structure. This is when children’s natural curiosity flourishes through exciting projects, real-world adventures, and discovering that learning can be joyful. We focus on building confidence alongside skills, always following their interests and enthusiasm.

Secondary Years Home Education (Ages 12-18)

The secondary years mark an exciting shift towards independence and deeper learning. Teenagers thrive when given ownership of their education journey, whether pursuing exam routes, exploring passion projects, or preparing for life beyond home ed. It’s about mentoring rather than directing, supporting their growing autonomy while staying connected to their goals.
