NSW Home School Programs - A Fresh Start

Customised programs for Years 3–10, built to restore confidence, curiosity and success.

Coach House provides customised NSW home schooling programs that make registration stress-free.

School doesn’t work for every child. Many parents tell us their kids struggle with:

  • Anxiety, bullying or pressure in crowded classrooms

  • Losing confidence and curiosity

  • A one-size-fits-all system that doesn’t fit their needs

Research shows kids thrive when:

  • They can learn at their own pace

  • They study in a calm, supportive environment

  • Learning is self-paced, interest-led and tailored to their capabilities and strengths

At Coach House, we specialise in fully customised home school programs in NSW. Every package is designed to meet Department of Education requirements while giving your child the freedom to thrive and the motivation to stay engaged in learning. And there’s no need to teach lessons. Because home school isn’t about recreating the classroom. As a parent, you can simply enjoy guiding and encouraging.

Students rediscover a love of learning when the pressure is lifted and their learning experiences are tailored to them. We’ve seen teenagers who once dreaded study begin to truly enjoy working on practical projects and exploring big ideas again.

Confidence Restored

Our programs cover English, Maths, Science, History, Geography, Work Education, Commerce, the Creative Arts, Technologies, Languages and PDHPE — all aligned with NSW syllabus outcomes. With Coach House, home schooling is not guesswork; it’s clear, systematic and academically robust.

Robust and Structured

We prepare students for what’s ahead — from senior studies to university, TAFE or apprenticeships. More than that, we equip them with independent learning skills that they will carry into adulthood: resilience, curiosity and confidence in their abilities.

Future Focused

Since the home school explosion began, the market is flooded with janky offers of help that you simply cannot trust to deliver. These operators are not usually experts, they are untrained, inexperienced and out to make a quick buck. Start with a program that works first time. Speak to us to discover the true value delivered by our programs. Coach House is built on decades of teaching experience, created by Master’s degree qualified teachers and one of Australia’s best-selling educational authors - who is also a veteran home schooling parent.

Avoid Wasting Good Money on Cheap Offers

Registration with the Department of Education is too important to risk on guesswork and generic, clumsy programs that don’t meet official requirements. Go directly to the provider with a proven track record. Your child deserves the best program and you need peace of mind. Coach House programs enable you to feel in control, well-organised and reassured that your child will thrive and you will be approved for registration with no hassles.

Don’t Risk Failing Registration

There’s no shortage of dubious advice for new home schoolers on Facebook and other social media platforms. But the general tone is one of hostility toward the regulating authorities. That is not a good starting place for building a relationship with your AP (authorised person) from the Department of Education. With a Coach House program, you can rest assured that you’re getting the right advice and all the necessary paperwork to pass with flying colours.

Watch Out For Misinformation

  • Tate, 15

    “We thought our son was ‘just lazy’. Within weeks of starting with Coach House, we realised he was simply overwhelmed at school. Now he’s confident, engaged and even excited to learn again.”

  • Hugo, 14

    "We were convinced our boy had a serious learning disability. But it was odd that he was able to learn at home with no trouble. Soon, we connected the dots and realised the only thing negatively affecting his learning was SCHOOL!"

  • Paige, 13

    Our daughter had been withdrawing more and more from us and her siblings. She became disinterested in learning, and in life generally. We knew we had to act in order to restore her to the thriving, confident young lady she is today. Home schooling gave us the key - personally tailored learning.

  • David, 9

    My son had struggled with a sensory problem that had gone undiagnosed for years which affected his learning at school. At Coach House, Ally pinpointed the problem and tailored a program built to improve his skills and academic results. He performed better within weeks of beginning his program.

  • Seth, 9, Kim, 11 & Taylor, 13

    As a home schooling family, we’ve found that the learning experience offered by Coach House programs really motivates our three kids. Their spelling, grammar and written work has improved considerably in the short time they’ve been working on their individualised programs. All our kids were on different levels in literacy and numeracy. You get what you pay for, and despite our initial reservations at buying three individual programs, we’re convinced that it was money well spent.

A SIMPLE PROCESS TO GET STARTED

Tell us your child’s story and your family’s vision of how you want home schooling to look at your place. We’re here to listen and to make that vision a reality.

A Free, Personal Consultation

We design a complete package around your child’s needs, strengths and interests. We also capture their current activities, so they can receive Dept of Ed credit for them. This is not distance ed or online learning - we dream bigger!

A Custom-Designed Program

Everything you need arrives: books & learning resources, projects, full year plan, assessment plan, reporting system and even practical activity kits — ready to go. Nothing to print out. We also create all the required Dept of Ed documentation, ready for your interview and registration approval.

Everything you need - delivered

With the right support, you can give your child the gift of freedom — without the stress. At Coach House, we walk beside you, equipping you with everything needed for approval, learning and consistent progress.

Home schooling doesn’t have to be overwhelming.

You don’t need an impersonal online portal.

You don’t need distance education and endless, boring worksheets.

You don’t need to replicate school at home.

You need a program that is rich, engaging and designed specifically for your child.

That’s what we deliver — real books, audio and visual resources, hands-on projects, and a sense of adventure that sparks curiosity.

Welcome to Coach House — where learning feels like a journey worth taking.

What’s in the box?

  • English workbooks deliver methodical teaching of spelling, vocabulary, punctuation, grammar and written expression for regular practice which is essential for strong literacy skills. We use a world-class Mathematics program that delivers content through explicit instruction and mastery learning.

  • We provide you with an impressive, A3 size professional portfolio which they’ll fill with their best work. The portfolio is a great motivator for kids to do high quality work. Showcasing project work demonstrates that we truly value their efforts and achievements. You can present the portfolio at your assessment interview as evidence of learning, then hold onto it as a permanent record of your child’s home schooling successes.

  • We use only the highest quality books - all individually matched to your child’s literacy ability, their previous experiences with books and their unique feelings about reading. They expose your child to a range of text types, reading and writing tasks and teach them how to think and analyse, not what to think.

    We’ve harnessed the power of graphic organisers to enhance memory and learning. As students work with books and writing responses, they are internalising and personalising information. Through our unique journalling approach to note-making, children encounter interactivity without screen time and subscriptions.

    But it's not all BOOKS. The best learning programs are an eclectic mix that stimulate all the physical senses - because everyone learns differently.

  • Our Pick & Mix projects deliver a wide range of practical activities that address all the core subject areas and electives. Each project will expand practical experience in speaking, listening, thinking, problem-solving, creating, testing, adapting and innovating. Projects may include gaming challenges, films, television documentaries, online videos, digital and audio resources designed for an immersive learning experience. It’s vital to capture children’s interest with compelling content to successfully teach them new skills. Kids who struggle with reading really enjoy accessing rich, engaging content effortlessly - and viewing and listening are ideal for that purpose. We’ve also included projects that will get your child outdoors and into hands-on, active learning experiences.

  • Your child will receive one or more customised kits including items such as quality art and craft supplies, model-making kits, journals and more.

  • To really enthuse your child, we’ll also include a few surprises.

Every program is unique to a particular learner.
