Home schooling
Hiya I’m starting home school when I turn 15 until I start college when I turn 16! I don’t do well in school due to dyscaulia and autism. Can anyone recommend things I should start to study for my GCSEs when I start college? Does anyone know places I can get work to do for my studies?
Home schooling in the UK is when you are still on roll with a school and they send work home.
I assume that you are going to be deregistered, in which case you'll be home educating.
To start with you need to work backwards. What do you want to do at college? Look at the college's websites and see what the entry requirements are both for just general entry, and for the subjects specifically.
Once you know that, then you'll know which subjects you need to take for GCSEs or IGCSEs whilst you're home educated. Knowing that is your first step before anything else.
