2023 Revision of Exemption Application Forms/Guidance

12/20/2022

0 Comments

 
The Ministry of Education has begun a review of their exemption application documents. The stated purpose is to "provide clearer guidance to families." I believe this was mostly motivated by a large number of applications received in 2021-2022 which were significantly lacking in most of the information needed. (During that period, a large number of families made the choice to begin homeschooling, and rushed the application, without having taken the time to understand the requirements or plan out their learning programme). 

The Ministry plans to include the NCHENZ govt liaison team (myself and Sheena Harris) and other representative stakeholders in consultation once they have drafted their changes. I have also reminded staff of the long-standing promise to create a family application form allowing for more than one child, and ask that they look at this as part of the review if possible. 

I'm mostly writing this post to act as a "place holder" so I can create a category for it here - if you check back in future using this link, you will see all entries in this category, to read any updates on the review and/or any changes made to the application.
