HomeSelecting a Core for my Family
When selecting the most appropriate Core for your family, it is essential to take the needs of your eldest child, and the needs of your youngest child into consideration. A Core should be selected so as not to hold your eldest child back, but be sufficiently accessible to keep your youngest child interested and involved.
We endeavour to place families on a single Core if at all possible. However, if the age gap between the eldest and youngest child is in excess of five years, it sometimes becomes a preferable option to operate two separate Cores, especially if the eldest child or children are able to operate a Core independently of you, the parent.
Please remember that if you have recently taken your child out of a regular school, the standard of Love2Learn is significantly higher, and it may be a far more comfortable choice to reduce the age level by a year, when selecting a Core.
Using our Core Selection Chart, take a look at the age of your youngest child versus the age of your eldest child.Where do the two ages fall? Consider how academically-inclined your eldest child is compared with your youngest. Please bear in mind that generally speaking, younger siblings tend to cope better with cores that are relatively higher than their ideal age group core, simply due to the “trickle down” effect.As elder siblings learn material, younger siblings have the benefit of learning from their elder brother or sister, thereby understanding, learning and retaining far more than would normally be the case.
Please prayerfully consider the Core choices before you.May the Lord grant you wisdom as His perfect will for your family unfolds.
If you order any of these CORE subjects, please note that all of your children will be learning these together, at the same time, providing that the age gap between your eldest and youngest child does not exceed 4 years.
“Let not the wise man boast of his wisdom, or the strong man boast of his strength or the rich man boast of his riches, but let him who boasts, boast about this: that he understands and knows me, that I am the Lord who exercises kindness, justice and righteousness on earth, for in these I delight,” declares the Lord.
Jeremiah 9:23
