Homeschooling Exemptions: A Cautionary Tale
Published 1 week, 3 days ago
Description
Tom Phillips successfully homeschooled his children in New Zealand, securing full exemptions from the Ministry of Education with minimal oversight. Despite red flags, the ministry failed to intervene, allowing Phillips to isolate the family in the bush for nearly four years. The lack of routine checks since 2010 has raised concerns about education quality, social skills, and child safety in homeschooling environments.
