It seems that wherever there is registration, and regulatory bodies, there lie the opportunities for data harvesting, surveillance, and control. I think of the doctors who have spoken out about the covid tyranny and the jabs subsequently losing their licences. If the regulatory agencies were there to crack down on doctors being drunk on duty or groping their patients, then fair enough; we have a working regulatory authority, but instead we have these regulatory bodies being used as vehicles of abuse, media control, back-handers, and corruption. The MHRA probably ticks all these boxes, as do many other bodies of regulation and registration. The one that the social workers register with springs to mind as well. I'm waffling! The point is, what does the law have to say about registration in general? I have to register if I have a TV (I don't). I have to register that I no longer have a TV licence. Switching energy suppliers is another registration scam. Why do they need to know who you switch to and from? It's all track and trace. The more we come off these registers of any kind, wherever possible, the more spanners are thrown into their wheels. One of my sons was home educated through the primary school years only. Minimal contact with the HE Officer. I met her at the local library rather than in my home. She was pleasant enough and supportive, no complaints, but the whole thing felt quite intimidating at the time.
We have a child asking for home education because of the school, the other constantly in trouble and hates the school. Why, largely because of the school's adherence to woke ideology exhibiting itself in numerous ways. The most woke teachers seem to be the most unpleasant. For minor behaviour issues they put children into isolation. They are shut in small windowless rooms that appear to be repurposed stock cupboards. As I understand it, this practice was supposed to be for pupils that were a danger to themselves or others while solutions were sought. The school denies my description of them, and suggest my kids are lying but they don't realise I have seen one of the rooms. In fact when I have challenged the school their response is always that the child has mis-characterised.
I wish home schooling was the answer but we live in a low population area, so few options for groups and we want to children to learn how to mix and work with all sorts of other children. Home schooling would isolate them in a bigger room! We also want them to have the option of a strong academic education. At the moment they just want out while we tell them to work and to keep options open. I should state that the school is academically good and one of the better available to us. Best of a bad bunch.
It's shocking having been educated myself in a good school that allowed opinions, debate and encouraged critical thinking.
Sarah 's tragic case highlights another ugly feature of the modern UK justice system: children are more and more often left with abusive fathers and not victimised mothers. Totally bunkers decisions with largely idiotic explanations such as to protect the child from mothers who suffered abuse who may influence their children against their abusive fathers... I know other cases like this so it is not a coincidence.
It seems the rulers of our lovely country want the worst decisions for us fellow citizens.
Thank you very much for bringing all this very important information out in the open. I am in the US but I have family and friends in the UK who are deeply concerned about this proposed law. I would very much like to connect them with you so that you can help them be more effective in their advocacy against it, as you have knowledge and angles that they did not yet have. Can you email me so that we can collaborate? My email is brucha613@gmail.com. Thank you!!

They have been trying to get home educated children on a register for years.
