In 2020 as the country was thrown in to lockdown due to the covid pandemic families were faced with home education with no knowledge or experience or even choice. Facebook groups were set up offering support from the established home education community to the families looking for support. As the pandemic eased and schools reopened many families started to deregister children some from fear of being exposed to covid and some because they felt they could now provide their children with a good education at home. We realised that families searching for support would find us easier to contact us if our name was shorter and directly reflected what we do so took the decision to change the name of the charity to Home Education Wales.
New Foundations Home Education was established in 2008
