Allocate share of per-pupil education funding to support home-educated children
We believe home-ed families should receive a share of per-pupil funding to support resources as home-ed children are entitled to a suitable education, yet families currently receive no direct funding, despite the state saving thousands of pounds when a child is educated outside the school system.
Increase funding to Local Authorities for home-educated children with safeguards
We want the Government to increase funding to local authorities so they can provide more funding to home-educated children. The funding should be conditional on parents submitting a clear education plan and providing regular updates to ensure this money is supporting the child’s learning.
Increase funding for learning support in schools
Teachers and children need Teacher Assistants and Learning Support Assistants. We believe without vital help and support; teaching and education may suffer, which could have a detrimental effect on all children - not just the children with additional needs.
Provide funding to partially cover costs of private healthcare
Provide funding for any NHS patients to access private treatments for procedures that the NHS typically covers, covering the costs equivalent to what the NHS would normally pay if the treatment were conducted through the NHS. Patients would then only need to cover the difference in cost.
Provide funding to subsidise school uniforms for all children
We want the Government to provide funding to subsidise free or significantly more affordable school uniforms for all school children to help families. We believe no child should be excluded or disadvantaged from education as their family can’t afford compulsory uniform.
