If you haven't arrived at this page via the main pages on the website, you need to know that The Nexus Connection is the blog and learning hub from Nexus Educate – a small specialist provider of online liberal arts courses for home-educated students. We created this space to support families who want more than just a curriculum. Whether you’re new to home education or years into your journey, this blog offers insight, encouragement, and practical advice grounded in experience.
We're hoping that this blog, to which we have added some adapted pieces from our newsletter, will develop into a sizeable resource. So, for ease of navigation (and because we couldn’t resist!) we’re splitting our content into four broad categories. Our idea is that you’ll find posts to:
💡 INSPIRE learners with new ideas, updates, resources and links to engage and intrigue them.
🔮 DISCOVER why particular objectives or regulations are in place through up-to-date reports, articles, links and comments on educational policy developments, exam board regulations and the various liberal arts curricula.
🧭 EXPLORE the bigger picture of education in the liberal arts tradition. Read articles, reflections and information explaining how to help students develop knowledge and understanding and build analytical, evaluative and creative skills for academics and life.
💎 ACHIEVE progress on your learning journey through seeing what effective liberal arts home learning can look like. Feel reassured that you are not alone. Read guest posts from students, teachers and parents/carers. Learn how meaningful home education experiences can make a world of difference in those all-too-often moments of doubt.
The Nexus Connection is written by teachers who are also fellow travellers on the home education journey. Here we share our knowledge on the paths available to various destinations and the pitfalls and pleasures of each one. We hope we can be useful whichever path you choose or just keep you company along the way.
