Joy at California's reversal of credentialed home tutors law is misplaced, says home schooling expert

Science & Education
Press release from: Tutors International
(openPR) - Tutors International founder Adam Caller has released a statement in reaction to the reversal of the California State ruling regarding the credentialed status of parents wishing to home school their children. Tutors International provides fully-credentialed full-time private tutors to families wishing to educate their children outside of the state system. For more information, visit www.tutors-international.com or call +44 (0) 1865 435 135.

Following widespread condemnation of the decision in February to force all home schooling parents to gain credentialed status, the Second District appellate court in Los Angeles recently overturned that ruling. The court found that, just like private schools, individual parents are exempt from the requirement to have been awarded credentialed status by the state.

"Even though the court's decision was met by such widely publicized joy in the home-schooling community, I was dismayed to read about this," Adam said. "Not because of the decision in and of itself, but because it demonstrates to me that the most important issue relating to this entire subject is not being addressed; that of the quality of the education the child receives. Whether the home educator is credentialed or not is irrelevant compared to whether the education being received is of a measurably high standard. This would be achieved by a standardized curriculum, to ensure that the child is not being disadvantaged by a home education. When the California State and home-schooling community begin to address this issue, I think that I will share some of that joy and sense of relief."
