Curriculums and Courses

We don’t use a curriculum (and you are not legally obliged to do so) but I thought it may be useful to have a page where all the links were gathered together.  With two exceptions, I haven’t tried these curriculums so I am unable to recommend them!! I am sure this isnt an exhaustive list, so please let me know if you know of any others.  Also – if you have used any of these curriculums a review in the comments section would be great.

Free Curriculums

• Ambleside online - I have used this a lot actually! I think its a great place to start if you arn’t sure what you want from a curriculum. Most of the books can be downloaded free and there is a yahoo group for support.
• Tanglewood. The Curriculum is free but you have to purchase the books yourself (or find them online)
• Open University Free Courses
• MIT Open Courseware

Fee-based

• Five in a Row See my review here
• Living Books A Charlotte Mason curriculum.
• Wits End
• Meleto (Maths only)
• Mathusee (Maths only)
• Oxford Home Schooling
• Primary Home Education
• National Extension College
• College on the Net
• Curriculum Concepts
• Open College of Arts
• ASW2 (GCSE’s and A levels)
• Open University
