Namibia is known as one of the most stable countries in Africa. The government has been progressive in many ways, including education policy. However, there are still areas where Namibian families struggle to get what they need for their children’s education. Especially when it comes to homeschooling, costs can be prohibitively high for some families who want a better education for their children than what the public schools can provide.

The high cost of homeschooling

You should also be aware that homeschooling is not free. The cost of homeschooling can be high, as it is in most countries. However, if you do some research and find the right solutions for your child’s needs, then you will save yourself a lot of money in the long run.

Here are some things that you should know about homeschooling costs:

• If you decide to send your child to a private school, then this will probably cost more than $500 per month (and sometimes even more). This includes tuition fees and textbooks/learning materials.
• If you choose to send them to public school instead (or if there aren’t any private schools around), then they can attend for free but only during certain hours each day (usually mornings), after which they return home until the next morning when they go back again. This option isn’t really ideal since it means that they might not get enough attention from teachers or peers at school; however, it does have its benefits since their parents won’t have to worry about paying tuition fees monthly anymore!

.A right to homeschool?

In Namibia, homeschooling is a right for all parents. There are no laws preventing homeschooling; it is not a requirement to register with the Department of Education.

However, if you choose to register with the Department of Education and there are more than three children in your family registered as being home-schooled, they will want to know why you have chosen this option. The department will also want proof that your child(ren) has been taught according to prescribed syllabus of education and standards set out by them (the department).

Home schooling has a high cost for parents 

Homeschooling is not an option for everyone. It has a high cost, and it’s not always suitable for children with special needs or disabilities.

If you are thinking about home-schooling your child, think carefully and make sure it’s right for your family.

Homeschooling is often expensive because parents need to buy all their own materials and books so they can teach their children at home (instead of sending them to school).
