Reminder

Submission of the End-term Report
As stipulated by the Homeschooling Regulation in section 16, you must provide the Minister with a completion report by June 15 after the beginning of the implementation of your child’s learning project.
Parents must send the Minister a written final report on their child’s progress by June 15 after the beginning of the implementation of the learning project. For example, for a learning project starting on September 30, 2018, the final report on the child’s progress is due on June 15, 2019.

The end-term report demonstrates the progress your child has made since the mid-term report.
Evaluation
