Our Mission

Since its inception in 1992, the Association for Homeschooling has promoted the recognition of the right of parents to educate their children within the family in South Africa, as it is recognised in art. 26 of the Universal Declaration of Human Right which states: “Parents have a prior right to choose the kind of education that shall be given to their children.” Since 2010, the Association also promotes these parental rights in the larger Southern Africa region.

Posted on Saturday, 31 December 2011

Tuisskolers.org has reported earlier that although public education in South Africa in general is a failure, there are still a number of public schools that provide excellent results.

Die einde van skole soos ons dit ken

Posted on Friday, 30 December 2011

In 'n lesing waar Bill Gates teenwoordig is, verduidelik Salman Khan waarom videos beter as onderwysers is om inhoud te verduidelik. Salman verduidelik hoe skole baie meer effektief kan funksioneer as elke leerling teen sy eie tempo vorder deur sy klasse oor video te ontvang, en waar onderwysers slegs uithelp daar waar leerlinge vashaak. Dit kom neer op die toepassing van 'n tuisonderwysmodel op skole. 'n Artikel in 'n American Thinker...

Home schooling was fundamental to civilisation as the only form of education for many years

Posted on Saturday, 24 December 2011

"It is clear that home schooling was fundamental to civilisation as the only form of education for many years. Parents had a unique right to and responsibility for their children's education. Once state schools were established in the late nineteenth century, they took over the parents' unique position. But, as the inadequacies and shortcomings of education systems gradually became obvious, parents increasingly began re-claiming their rights as primary educators." This extract...

Ons Missie

Sedert sy oprigting in 1992 het die Vereniging vir Tuisonderwys hom beywer vir die erkenning van ouers se reg om hulle kinders binne familieverband op te voed in Suid-Afrika, soos dit erken word in art. 26 van die Universele Verklaring van Menseregte wat verklaar: “Ouers het die reg om te kies watter tipe opvoeding hulle kinders ontvang.” Sedert 2010 bevorder die vereniging hierdie ouerlike regte ook in die Suider-Afrikaanse streek.
