A win for homeschooling parents in Queensland, fighting to make the system more accessible for families. The Queensland government has accepted all 8 recommendations of an independent review into the Home Education Unit.


Key Points
  • The regulatory review, which published its report in September 2024, was prompted by widespread opposition to the previous state government's attempts to enforce legislation that would impose the Australian curriculum on homeschooling students.
  • One of the key aspects of the recommendations is to enhance resources and supportive tools for parents meeting regulatory requirements.
  • There are more than 11,000 homeschooling students in the state according to the Queensland government data.
