"This book is designed to give parents and teachers information on the alternative education options available in the UK. It covers three main areas: Outside the state system; Doing it yourself; and Alternatives within the state system." "The values, philosophies and methods of each alternative are described, along with the first-hand experiences of children, teachers and parents. There are answers to common questions and useful sources of further information." "This accessible and informative book is the ideal introduction for parents deciding how best to educate their children. It will also be of interest to teachers looking to build on their knowledge of different education philosophies."--Jacket.
