The LEA is coming

I am not intending to ignore this site! School is continuing and we are making good progress. However, I returned home from holiday to a letter stating that the Local Education Authority would be coming to evaluate our education process. That meeting is Friday. So, I have been trying to organize things so that it is obvious what we are doing. It is rather nebulous what they expect. The law states that we must educate “full-time and adequate to age.” That is open to a wide-range of interpretation. When I asked the reviewer what she wanted to see she said, “we just need to talk and fill out some reports.” I don’t think it is quite that simple. So, I am making sure the things we have done are easy to read. And that there is some “proof” of social activities and field trips. And praying that I can answer questions that make us look full-time, even though seat work is only 2-3 hours a day (and I think that is too much for Kindergarten, but my over achiever constantly asks for more). I’ll give a more full report of what we are doing (with pictures of our science project) next week.

Oh, that would be nerve-racking! I am very glad we don't have to do that where we live. I pray it all goes well for you!
