Our desire is to support those choosing home schooling as the educational option for their family.  One of the difficulties many expatriate parents face is the education of their children in the foreign country to which they are sent.  Often home schooling is the only option available. 

The support center is based at Hope Academy in Bishkek and is open each afternoon - Monday to Friday (please phone Hope Academy at 68.10.79 or 29.96.46 before visiting).  We invite you to take advantage of this great opportunity to have professional help and advice as well as the use of the resources we are gathering and the Hope Academy school library.  Services we offer will include, but are not limited to:-

• A resource center for parents to use
• Collating your bright ideas
• Organizing an in-school week for your pupils to work alongside peers at Hope Academy. 
• Help with setting up timetables and organizing programs
•  Professional support in the learning and teaching process
• Testing in reading and math
• A listening ear
• Encouragement
• Lots of helpful ideas
• Regular contact with parents and children via emails, newsletters, visits, phone calls. We publish a magazine of children's writing and helpful ideas 5 times per year.

The home school fee is 500 com per year. Consultation is also available on a donation basis.

Please email the Home School Support Coordinator, Jan McKerras, at home_school_center@yahoo.com if you would like to enroll.
