What does my child need to know?
If you're talking about your Junior infant the truth is very little.
It may be worth while for you to take a look at the national curriculum guidelines for Primary Education Here. Here you will find all you need to know about what your child would be learning in school. Be aware, this is an 80 page overview of what is expected in schools when it comes to curriculum. It is here for your reassurance that you are on the right track but we do not believe that you need to stick rigidly to it. As you progress in your homeschooling you will find that a lot of the concepts in this guide are things that you naturally do with your children anyway. Also joining our Facebook group is a great way to meet others, share ideas and curriculum.

Things to remember:
- It takes far less time to teach children in a one to one setting.
- You do not have to use any official curriculum.
- You can decide when, how and what to teach your child.
- Network, network, network. Your children will benefit from meeting with other children in the homeschool community and you will find those who can help you along during the tough days.
