A few years ago, our family made the decision to spend a year travelling around Australia.
The plan was simple. The paperwork was not.
Enrolling in home education meant facing a wall of uncertainty. Queensland Home Education told us we needed an "education program" - but what did that actually mean? Distance education was one option, but it was expensive, structured around a fixed timetable, and not built for the kind of flexibility a year on the road required. It also wasn't built for our child with ADHD and dyslexia.
So we built our own. We worked through the curriculum requirements, structured a year of learning aligned to the Australian Curriculum, and made sure our kids would return to mainstream school without missing a beat. It worked.
Travelling alongside us were friends who had chosen distance education - not because they wanted to, but because applying for home education felt too daunting.
"They would have chosen home education. They just needed a way in."
Apply-ED is the resource we wished had existed. A guided way for any Australian family to create a structured, highly personalised, curriculum-aligned home education program - ready to submit as part of your state registration application.
No blank pages. No subscription traps. No submission on your behalf. We're not educators or a registration body - just an Australian family who went through the process and built the tool we needed at the time. You remain in control of your family's education.

Every family deserves the option to make this choice - not just the ones who can figure out the paperwork.
No obligation. No submission on your behalf.
