Postgraduate Study in the UK: The International Student's Guide Book

As a homeschool graduate and enthusiastic home educator-to-be (I have a toddler and a baby at present) I'm always interested in reading on this topic, including differing viewpoints.

"Perspectives on Your Child's Education" offers four views on the schooling issue: public schooling, open admission Christian schools, Christian schools (that don't enroll non-Christians) and homeschooling.

I enjoyed the book's format - each position is written by a different author who's perspective is then critiqued by the other three authors. Reading through it I felt like I was listening to a good (friendly) debate. Each author made good points and many positive and negatives were addressed for each choice, challenging some of my pre-existing opinions.

While I did walk away firm in my previously held conviction and decision to homeschool, I felt like I am better able to understand the differing educational choices individuals make.

I wouldn't call this book an in-depth work on the where-to-school question (which I don't believe was the authors' intent) but it is an interesting and easy read and will help you think through your choice of education for your child, understand others' choices better, and perhaps lead to an interest in further study.

(I received this book free of charge from B&H publishing for the purpose of an honest review.)
