'We haven't looked back': Gemma Troughton, home schooling in Australia experiences post-lockdown boom
Number of children learning at home has doubled since the pandemic - with parents saying the mainstream education system isn't working.
When Gemma Troughton's daughter started prep in Brisbane, her anxiety "blew through the roof".
It was 2020 - a year of lockdowns, remote learning and uncertainty. But as the schooling system stabilised, her daughter didn't.
Now nine, Troughton's daughter is one of a growing number of "accidental home schoolers" - those who opted for home schooling after finding the mainstream system didn't work for them.
In total, 40,000 Australian children are home schooled - double the rate before the pandemic in 2019, and a record high for every state and territory.
Gemma Troughton is a mother and teacher who quit her job to homeschool her child, now nine, who was struggling in mainstream education system. (daughter not to be ID'd) Brisbane. Australia.
