Home schooling in Scotland!

I found this article written earlier this month about home education in Scotland. It states that there has been a rise in home education in Scotland due in a large part to bullying in the schools. Not surprise there! No surprise either that the 'authorities' that are quoted in the article try to say that we can't possibly know the cause of the rise since we don't keep records of peoples reasons! They never want to admit they are failing do they?

In England, there has been a rise in bullying (Littlesmurf was a victim) and also a lot of parents are seeing that the constant testing is not doing their children any good!
When will the "powers that be" ever learn?!

Thanks for that- it's interesting to see information particularly on Scotland, as there are less of us homeschoolers around up here (although increasing, apparently!). G.
