It appears that the home school population is continuing to grow as schools have shuttered their physical campuses to curb the spread of Covid-19.
While institutes have moved their courses to remote and online formats, the reasonable fees of other online resources are increasingly drawing parents' interest.
Providers feel the traction is long-term
Providing professional student-centric online classes, other home school providers reiterate that online schooling due to Covid-19 is opening future avenues. Ananth Isaiah, founder and director of Knowledge Quotient, said: "Homeschooling may now become a thing of the future, especially if distance learning continues into the new session."
He added: "Parents have started asking why should they pay large tuition fees for an in-person experience that their children are not receiving? If students are learning online anyway, why not opt for a provider that has strong experience with online learning and can offer it more affordably."
