Our chosen method:

Autonomous Education/ Unschooling/'Free-Range' Education/Child-led learning:

...are forms of home education which work on the belief that the conventional
methods of
traditional schooling, are counterproductive to maximising the
education of the individual and that in fact it is preferable to allow
children to learn through their natural life experiences.

This kind of
educational philosophy is also sometimes known as the "free-range"
method. Student-centred learning is led by the children themselves &
facilitated by the adults, child directed play is a key tenet of the
unschooling philosophy.

Read an article
about 'Un-schooling' written by Grace Llewellen, a former English
teacher and the author of 'The Teenage Liberation Handbook: How to Quit
School and Get a Real Life and Education' (1991)
