Update to United Future's Policy

 

Dear Mrs XXXXX.

I have discussed your  concern with Hayden Cox, who has now replied directly
to you.

It is not, and never has been,  UnitedFuture’s policy to bring
homeschooling under the Correspondence
School. We are satisified with the
current regulatory arrangements, and respect completely the right of
parents to homeschool their children.

Regards,
  Hon Peter Dunne
  MP for Ohariu Belmont /Leader of United Future
  Minister of Revenue/Associate Minister of Health

Hi XXXXXX

Peter Dunne has sent me your email below regarding homeschooling.

Can I reassure you that my answer to the question regarding home
schooling was incorrect. Whether or not I was confused with another
question or not I cannot remember but we do not have a policy that
requires all homeshooling to be done through the correspondence school,
in fact we believe parents have the right to make their own choices over
their children’s education. I apologise for the error.

If you have any further questions please get back to me.

Kind regards,

Hayden Cox
