When you look only on academic achievements, children educated at home seem to advance faster than their counterparts in public schools. A report published by ERIC (Educational Resources Information Center) shows that the scores of home education tests were exceptionally high and well above that of public and private schools. They found that students of education at the eighth grade have four years ahead of their colleagues in public or private schools.

In a study conducted by Dr. Lawrence Rudner, he discovered that students who were being educated at home throughout their school career, achieved the highest of all children.

The interesting information that came from this research was the difference that home education made the achievements of different breed groups. There was very little difference between the scores of white, black and Hispanic children in home education. On the other hand, there was a significant difference between the achievements of different groups of racials that attended public schools. Eight-grade Public School students scored on average in Mathematics, where black children scored in percentile 24. White students scored at Percentile 57 in Reading and Hispanic students in only percentile 28.

Dr. Ray, in his book, own fortresses, came to another interesting conclusion. The amount of money that is spent on registration had no effect on the child's achievement. In fact, the cheapest home education option had better results than much more expensive public education. In his research, according to statistics of 1998, he found that a home educated at home costs parents on average $ 546 compared to $ 5 325 for an apprentice of public school. The average score for the child educated at home was in the 85th percentile, where the score for the apprentice of the public school in the 50th percentile was averaged.

These research studies were carried out in several of the states and in all the results, the findings were the same. The educated child at home scored on average of 20-25 percentage points higher than his counterparts in public schools.

The investigation also found that the qualifications of the parent responsible for schooling had no real effect on the student's achievement. Reading it, for more information please visit www.arthouse-kuklite.com
