How many times has Hunter ‘tried’ school? If he says he doesn’t want to be there the twins will likely follow his lead.
Why can’t they just live their life in private? All the posing for photos & stories must take up a lot of time.
Same for all the families that feel the need to have their kids & life plastered over social media.

Crazy, maybe they can all become influencers.
Maybe don’t announce that they are all crazy to go to school knowing it’s highly likely they will not like i, or in the case of the older boys not even start.

I feel so sorry for these kids, they're far too young to be making such an important decision as to whether they attend school or not. Of course they'd rather be at home doing fun things with her like going to the beach. My daughters were both very shy and clingy, I had a really hard time getting them to school every day, but there's no way I would have let them decide. I wonder, does she have someone come in to observe her teaching them at home? There must be regulations. I'm sure they are learning lots with her but not about socialising with other children. And they aren't gaining knowledge from a qualified teacher.

She’s doing those boys no favours by letting them go in later. They will struggle a lot more keep changing their hours….I’m honestly surprised the school are willing to keep accommodating them c

I know many won't agree with me but I think it's extremely negligent to put their education on the back burger like this. They're in school, they're out, then in again..... They're going to fall massively behind educationally and won't do well in exams. I know she wants them all to be celebrities but kids need structure, social skills, adversity and routine. She's only anti school because she wants to constantly film herself and her kids and post it online. She never commits to home schooling, it's sad for the kids.
Yes, she has previously said the older boys will only do 5 GCSEs as there is no point in doing any more than that. I think that is a short sighted attitude.

I really hope she sticks with it. All kids have a wobble at some point, but you just get on with it. If she would relax she could really make the most of her time home schooling the older boys.
I don't think she will, despite saying she plans to keep them there until at least Christmas, I don't think it will happen. Because she can't cope with them being away.

And just seen this mornings story. Decided the twins will go in at break time as that will work better for them. never mind the other kids and the teacher who's day she is disrupting. FFS!

they will find it hard to make friends going in at a different time too, by the time they get their the others will already be in their friend groups playing.

I understand it’s hard when they struggle to like school but it’s only been 4 days and she’s already changing the goal posts!

Also, treating them to crisps in a cafe is obviously going to more attractive than going somewhere they’re apprehensive about! I feel for Faye as she clearly has huge anxiety/hang ups about school but she is projecting them massively on to her kids. I used to hate dropping one of my kids at nursery as he would sometimes get teary and I became anxious walking up to the door. I KNEW I couldn’t let him see that so I was lucky that I could ask my husband to drop off instead. Could her husband do it or is he similarly anxious/weak willed about school?!

Imagine if we all decided what time our kids would go into school every day! I don't understand why this school is letting her get away with disrupting their schedule. You can't just pick snd choose the bits of life that suit you!

Is this a free range school? I pity the poor teacher.
You don’t take your kids to school at a time that works for you, you fit your life around school hours usually.

It doesn't have the Waldorf or Steiner stamp like the Adamo's.

Last time she did flexi schooling with J and sent him part time, but that does have to be agreed to with the school. The twins didn't go to nursery either though so might be struggling a bit more. They lasted two weeks in school last time.

For most kids who don’t like school they just have to suck it up, there is no other option.
These boys are not learning to be very resilient.
Maybe the Goodings need to come & give the Byron Bay barefoot vibe a try.

I’m not sure why it’s such a big issue. The majority of children don’t have home school option and parents have to go through the worry of leaving a child screaming at school. They settle eventually. Some sooner than others.

I wonder if they are concerned about their content and brand if the kids are at school and earning potential and ads may really change
 
I don't think it really matters. The next pair of gifted matching christmas PJ's, toy, laptop and beach pic can still be uploaded on the weekends. Lots of other influencers have kids in school and just pre record stuff to upload for later.

I know she mentioned it before with R being 13, but I honestly thought he was still 11. I think she has another two years until he decides he doesn't want to be pictured on the gram anymore. The twins will be photographed and used until they're at the end of year 6 at the very least.

See I think the 13 loves the spotlight & will continue posing for her for as long as she lets him. J, the most grown up of them all (Faye’s words) will be over the cutie pie pics soon.
I only want to see her photos of Cornwall not her kids.🙃
