The SDP recognises that children are not required to attend school or at least receive tuition from some other source.

Message | I Wish there were more options Than this. |
Date | not recorded | From | Social Dynamist Party | To | Debating the National Education Bill |
Message | True. The other option is only at school. For those currently receiving tuition, the legislation could prove detrimental. Let it be understood that home tuition is not without the obvious conditions that some assessment is made about the quality of education received. |

Message | I feel that an educational program has to be set so that students can choose to go to school, but if they do not show aptatude to stay in school, then allow them to go to a trade school to learn a trade. If at such time they decide they want to go back to school or college, they can do a GED. |
