Big win for homeschooling families in Queensland as state embraces new reforms
The Queensland government has accepted all eight recommendations from an independent review of the Home Education Unit, following backlash against enforcing the Australian curriculum on homeschoolers. Key changes include renaming the unit, improving learning resources, and increasing stakeholder engagement. In this podcast, SBS Hindi speaks with Danika, parent of a neurodiverse child, who has welcomed the reforms. Separately, a report by the Queensland Family and Child Commission urges better inter-departmental information-sharing to protect child safety, which the government is reviewing.
