Homeschool resources: common questions

What are the best free homeschool resources in Singapore?

Start with a structured core for maths and English β€” such as the free Success Homeschool curriculum library, with lessons, worked examples and practice questions β€” then add free resources for reading, science and the outdoors from this directory. Every listing shows an honest cost label so you can see what's genuinely free.

How do you choose which homeschool resources to list?

We list genuine, established resources that are useful to homeschooling families, check each link and record the date. We don't accept payment for listings and don't publish ratings β€” just plain descriptions so you can decide.

How do I find homeschool groups and co-ops near me?

Start with the parent communities in this directory, then see our guide to homeschool groups and co-ops in Singapore for networks, co-op models, sport and clubs, and safety tips.

Where can I get homeschool tutoring?

Many families use a tutor for a tricky subject, senior study or test preparation. Our homeschool tutoring guide for Singapore explains when it helps, the options available and what to ask before you sign up.

Links were last checked on the date recorded for each resource. External sites are run by their owners; please check suitability for your child. Spotted a broken link? Let us know through your dashboard.
