Gap Year
A programme that is guided by the interests of the child with a strong emphasis of learning outside the classroom. It is also commonly referred to as “natural Learning”, “experience-based learning”, or “independent learning.” Unschooling homes typically let their current interests dictate what they choose to study. There is no set curriculum.
