Home Education, Autonomy and the Fight for Freedom with Hannah Canavan

Today on the RAISE Podcast, we’re joined by Hannah Canavan – mother of three, home education advocate and a leading voice for educational autonomy in the UK. Hannah shares her powerful journey from working in behaviour management to raising her children outside the school system, travelling the world and championing the right to home educate.In this raw and honest conversation, we explore what home education truly looks like (spoiler: it’s not school at home), why more families -  including teachers - are walking away from the mainstream system and how the proposed Children’s Wellbeing Bill could impact educational freedom across the UK.We also delve into mental health, neurodiversity, resilience, rebuilding confidence in children who’ve been let down by the system and how to make home education work even as a single parent. If you’re curious about homeschooling, questioning the status quo, or navigating your own parenting path, this one’s for you.Get ready to raise some important questions about how we raise the next generation.  Thank you for listening!
