| Description | Home education represents one of the options to individual education that is usually carried out in a family environment. It is one or more pupils, mostly siblings, who are educated. The role of the educator is mostly performed by parents, rarely by grandparents, and also sometimes by home tutors. Home schooling in the Czech educational environment can be understood as one of the options to educational concepts made possible thanks to the changes in our social and political system after 1989. At the same time, home schooling represents a trend which has been widely discussed both by the academic and general public in the Czech Republic and abroad. |
