Helping Families Get Started with Confidence

One of the things families love most about Simply Homeschool is the freedom to create an education that truly suits their children.

But with so many Core Programs available, knowing where to start can sometimes feel overwhelming.

That's why we created Pathways.

Pathways provide a simple starting point by combining Essentials, Explore and Engage Cores into a balanced learning plan that still leaves plenty of room for flexibility, interests, family learning and everyday life.

The goal isn't to do everything. The goal is to start confidently.

How Pathways Work

Every Pathway is built around three simple elements:

1. Essentials

Build strong foundations in literacy, writing, language development and mathematics.
 

2. Explore

Help students understand the world through topics such as science, history, geography, STEM and inquiry.
 

3. Engage

Develop confidence, creativity, wellbeing, relationships and life skills.

A Simple Formula

Most Pathways follow a simple structure:

Foundation to Year 6

  1. Essentials
  2. Choose 1 Explore Core
  3. Choose 1 Engage Core

Years 7-10

  1. Essentials
  2. Choose 2 Explore Cores
  3. Choose 1 Engage Core

As students move into the secondary years, learning naturally broadens and students benefit from exploring a wider range of interests and subject areas.

A Guide, Not a Prescription

Pathways are designed as a starting point, not a set of rules.

You are always free to:

  • Swap Core Programs
  • Follow your child's interests
  • Add extra studies
  • Explore rabbit trails
