Learning Without School
Learning Without School
Beverley Paine
Beverley Paine
Learning Without School explores what learning looks like when it is freed from timetables, classrooms, and compulsory instruction. Alongside Beverley’s reflections, the book includes a rich collection of “how we homeschool” stories from more than 30 home educating families across Australia.
These honest, fly-on-the-wall glimpses into ordinary days and weeks show what home education really looks like in practice — diverse, flexible, and deeply human. Together, they offer reassurance, inspiration, and a sense of possibility.
This is not a how-to manual or a prescription for doing homeschooling “the right way.” Instead, it gently demonstrates that there is no single right way. A wide range of approaches, rhythms, and styles are represented, affirming that families can — and do — find ways of learning that suit their unique needs.

"Learning Without School and Getting Started with Homeschooling Practical Considerations. Both are books I found invaluable and still refer to in our 3rd year homeschooling." Rowena, VIC
Thoughtful reflections, practical reassurance, and lived wisdom for home educating families.
Thoughtful reflections, practical reassurance, and lived wisdom for home educating families.
The Always Learning collection brings together a series of reflective, experience-based eBooks written for parents who want to understand learning more deeply – beyond curriculum, checklists, and outcomes.
Grounded in decades of homeschooling and unschooling practice, these books explore how children actually learn, how parents grow alongside them, and how education unfolds naturally through everyday life, relationships, curiosity, and trust.
Rather than offering rigid methods or prescriptive programs, the Always Learning collection invites you to slow down, reflect, and reconnect with what matters most in home education: meaningful learning, respectful relationships, and confidence in your child’s innate capacity to grow.
Inside the collection you’ll find:
Reflections on learning, childhood, and education drawn from lived experience
Gentle challenges to school-centred thinking
Reassurance for parents navigating doubt, pressure, or uncertainty
Language to help articulate your philosophy of home education
Permission to trust yourself and your children
