Homeschooling in Brussels

Expert Info

Submitted by Sucap1 on
Destination: Brussels

Hi there, I'm possibly relocating to Brussels in January 2020 with my family, my husband has been offered a 4 year contract with his work with the Perm Rep. My daughter is due to start secondary school this year and isn't guaranteed a place at one of the European schools in Brussels for this school year. I'm wondering would homeschooling be an option until she gets a place? Does anyone know or have experience of this?

The schools are currently on holidays so I cannot speak to anyone to see if she has a chance of getting a place.

Thanks for any advice/suggestions.
