We took our girls out of school around 3 years ago and home educate them. My wife mainly does the educating as I still work full time. Our girls are thriving with a more nuanced and free style of learning that suits them individually. The education system is outdated, too focused on targets/grades.

Our son had to leave school in year 7 because he couldn't cope with it. He's just got his first GCSE results and they were pretty good. I don't think he would have made it if he'd tried to stay in school.
