A conversation with Juliet English. Juliet is wife to Larry, mum to 7 amazing young people, and more recently a foster carer. Juliet started out working as a social worker, but made the decision to become a stay-at-home mum in 1993, with three little ones at home. The decision to home educate was made in 1998 when the family were still living in South Africa, and they soon became part of a thriving and friendly home ed community. They continued home educating after moving to the UK in 2007, and are still home educating their youngest through his A-levels. Juliet continues to be very involved in the home educating community and has run successful home ed groups in 3 cities, co-ordinates the Learn Free Home Educators Conference annually (May) in the UK, and speaks and writes about all things home ed. Juliet is passionate about home education and is engaged in national and global initiatives to promote home education as a legal right and valid option. She loves supporting and encouraging other parents who choose this educational route for their children, and believes home education has the potential to change the lives of children and their families.
