What’s it like to be homeschooled your entire life, with seven siblings, in New Zealand?

In this episode, we talk to a journalist who was home educated from birth through to further education, without ever setting foot in a traditional school.

We dig into everything from socialisation and sibling dynamics to how he tackled exams, discovered his passion for journalism, and whether he’d home educate his own future children. He shares honest reflections on what worked, what was tricky, and what he wishes more people understood about home education.

Whether you're considering homeschooling in New Zealand, the UK, or anywhere else, this is a rare and insightful peek into what lifelong home education can really look like.
