Handbook of Home Educated Alumni

Home education began in Victoria with half a dozen parents in the 1970s

With the first generation of home educated students now adults, we set out to find out where they are and what they are doing. Some have entered school, some have gone straight to further education or careers. They have taken a variety of pathways and are living proof that home education leads to further education, employment and productive lives. Initial results were compiled in our Handbook of Alumni early in 2017.

• National Report available below
• 2nd edition of our Handbook available here for $10 (free to members from the digital Otherways page).
• printed copies of the 1st edition available here.

Note: The handbook includes individual details on early respondents along with the report below. If you purchased the 1st edition, your best option is to download the report from below – you don’t need the updated Handbook.

Updated Alumni Survey results. (survey ran from December 2016- March 2017)
