It is not known how many children and young people are home educated in England, but there is evidence of an increase in recent years and that this has accelerated during the pandemic.
The Association of Directors of Children’s Services (ADCS) estimated that as of October 2021 there may have been around 81,200 registered home educated children in England. This estimate is very likely to underestimate the number because registration is voluntary.
In 2019, all local authorities responded to the Office of the Schools Adjudicator (OSA) survey, providing the only available full set of survey data for registered home educated children in England (60,500 as of March 2019). However, this was before the Covid-19 pandemic and so will now be out of date.
