Home-educating children is extremely challenging and parents make many sacrifices in order to do it. Home-education leads to families being financially disadvantaged as parents must take on the full-time responsibility for their child’s education. In almost all households, the result of this is that only one parent is able to take on paid work. Despite continuing to pay taxes, home-educating parents receive no financial support from the government and have to pay for teaching and educational resources. This is not an insignificant cost, particularly where there are multiple children in a single household. These families are therefore doubly disadvantaged. They do their best to keep their children safe, but as a consequence they lose income and face more expenses in order to educate their children effectively.

Companions Educational Trust seeks to reduce the burden on parents by providing affordable learning and social opportunities for Muslim children. Our charity is run by volunteers and every donation made goes directly toward funding the education of our students. The generosity of the community helps to pay for our classroom, teaching, and the purchase of textbooks and classroom equipment.

Even a small donation goes a long way. A donation of £20 covers the cost of renting a classroom for half a day. A donation of £10 covers the cost of a history textbook.
