St Aiden’s Homeschool – Free Educational Resources
Who, What and Where is St Aiden’s Homeschool?
St Aiden’s Homeschool was born a number of years ago out of a desperate need to provide quality and affordable education to the masses of people in South Africa (And Africa) who could no longer afford to pay the ridiculous school fees required to enrol and keep your child in a safety-compromised environment, a classroom with 50 odd children of different ages and cultures, in a school of around 1000 students where often the traditional and long-time educators have not moved with the times.
Since becoming legal in 1996 homeschooling has taken off in South Africa and has spread throughout Africa now enabling students and families previously unable, to now obtain quality educational material for free or nearly free.
One such website that caters for homeschooling families, teachers, educators, students and caregivers is St Aiden’s Homeschool.
