Have you ever learnt a new skill? Did you manage to do it without someone telling you that you had to or force you to learn it in a way that wasn’t working for you? The school approach to learning is only one way to learn. School is not the only way. And school type learning is not the only way. For many this is the beginning of unlearning. Here we are not only unlearning what we thought we knew but re-learning some educational ideas together. Coming to a realisation that there must be another way. The beginning of discovering that there are other ways to learn.Learning doesn’t have to look like school, in fact developmentally school type learning is not the optimal way of learning.This chapter opens up the world of unschooling by introducing the idea and what it is.
Episode Overview:In this episode of Unschooling Conversations, host Heidi Steel is joined by returning guest Alice Khimasia to explore how unschooled children transition into adulthood. Both share personal stories and reflect on evolving family dynamics, shifting educational landscapes, and the lasting impact of self-directed learning.Key Topics Discussed:Personal updates: Changes in Alice and Heidi’s families, including children moving out, volunteering, and new interests.Navigating transitions: How unschooled children find their paths as they approach adulthood, and the non-linear, organic nature of their journeys.Alternative pathways: Apprenticeships, volunteering, non-traditional routes to degrees and careers, and the importance of following personal interests.Lifelong learning for all: The ongoing process of learning and adapting, not just for children but for parents as well.The importance of mentorship, community, and diverse milestones, rather than rigid educational timelines.Parent reflections: Modeling adaptability, embracing uncertainty, and finding joy in watching children take the lead.Listener Takeaways:There is no single pathway to successful adulthood for unschooled children; self-knowledge, agency, and confidence are key.Community support, mentorship, and real-life examples can reassure and inspire families at all stages.Trusting the process and permitting organic growth often yields surprising and positive outcomes.Alice Khimaisahttps://organic-education.co.uk/https://linktr.ee/alicekhimasiaResourcesFind the Unschooling Village Hub and resources for unschooling families: liveplaylearn.orgThank you for listening to Unschooling Conversations.

Your child is not broken or wrongSome children find it easy to comply, others excel at it. Listening to instructions, remembering the rules, and controlling their emotions and behaviours. For others it takes significantly more effort. Sometimes the effort they put in all day means that the falling apart happens at home. There is no time for homework. There is only time for crying, watching TV, or bubbly baths. Hours of recovery and exhaustion from the effort of ‘being good’ all day.It is often our child that alerts us to their being something amiss with going to school and when they are home educated, they become even more vocal about what they want to do and what they don’t want to do (this is okay, they should!)Chapter Two is where we first introduce the ideas of radical acceptance, trusting your child, and embracing the wider definition of education as we attend to your child’s emotional well-being, health, sense of self and neurological differences, alongside academic progress.And we lean into the idea that your child s okay just the way that they are.
School shapes our views about education and learning. Most of us have been to school and have heard the messages on repeat about the need to pay attention, get top marks, and pass exams. It is culturally part of our society, governs our days and family life, and for the most part is our only experience of education. School was built and designed for a reason and there have always been signs that school isn’t for everyone. Children up and down the country are telling us that school is stressful, and irrelevant, and parents are questioning behavioural policies and the developmental appropriateness of some of school’s requirements. It doesn’t change the fact that choosing to do something different, to take full responsibility for your child’s education, is a big decision. Chapter One starts at the beginning: why does school exist? how can you know that school isn’t for your child? And is it possible for you to do something different?My book, School isn’t for Everyone (and what you can do instead,) is a book that opens up the world of self-directed education and unschooling to parents. It combines theory and practice whilst being grounded in the reality of being with your child day in and day out. It addresses the key concerns and questions that parents have when they first discover unschooling and at the same time provides the tools that are needed for parents to begin following this approach at home. Ultimately it leaves parents confident in their own abilities to educate their children in a way that (I believe) is quite magical.When parents begin to look at their options and they discover home education then a door opens into another world. A whole world of possibilities, and one of those is unschooling, a way of living and learning together as a family without the influence of school.

Are you worried about your child’s mental health and feel that they (and you) need a little extra support? Unschooling allows for you to prioritise your child’s mental health and your relationships, and whilst the principles of unschooling and the lifestyle are naturally therapeutic, they are not therapy.

Welcome to the first in a new series of episodes The Voices of Unschooling. We know that unschooling looks different in every family and that there is no curriculum, manual or blueprint for what unschooling looks like. Unschooling families are drawn together by their ideas on how learning happens and their focus on building and establishing a family culture based on shared principles. This series is a way of showcasing how those ideas are put into practice in unschooling homes and what unschooling can look like on any given day. The Voices of Unschooling episodes are an invitation to celebrate and share what life and learning can look like and how families made the change from schooled to unschooled. This episode I am joined by Martha, parent to one beautiful child who struggled with various mainstream and alternative educational settings and found their way to unschooling.
