Dear PM

For those of you who are interested, there is a petition against the Review:

We the undersigned petition the Prime Minister to Reject the Report to the
Secretary of State on the Review of Elective Home Education in England by Graham
Badman. This report is a totally disproportionate response to a 'perceived' problem full of unsubstantiated allegations that home educated children are more at risk than those at school. This is simply not true and enacting the recommendations in this report would establish the state as parent of first resort. To allow LA staff access to private homes to interview children without their parents when there is no reason to suspect abuse is outrageous.
