TORONTO--An increasing number of Canadian families are choosing to home-school their children, according to a new study released today by the Fraser Institute, an independent, non-partisan Canadian public policy think-tank.
The study, Home Schooling in Canada: The Current Picture--2015, notes that 21,662 Canadian children were registered as 'home-school students' (with likely more not officially registered) in 2012, an increase of 29 per cent over a five-year period.
