Legal Guidelines

the family, parents, children and the State with respect to education.

The State versus Home Education in Ireland
Registration of Home educators. Any law that would compel people
to apply for approval by a Government body for inclusion in a
register to allow them to do something that they have a specifically
delineated Constitutional right to do, is, per se, unconstitutional.
