Resources for homeschooling parents and teachers 

Many, many online resources are available. The ones below are ones which have come to our attention and which we think are likely to be of good quality.

The links are, for the most part, to free resources to support teachers, parents and students in the coronavirus period. Where links are to paid for resources these are included where we can’t find similar open access resources.

Recommendations for resources to include are invited from educators. We are not able to quality assure all the resources referenced but we trust teachers as professionals to use their professional judgement in deciding on what resources to use. Parents may wish to check with the teachers of their children, which resources fit with the curriculum the students are following. Email editorialteam@meshguides.org with your recommendations stating your name and your role in education. For updates, follow us on Twitter (@meshguides)
