Join the BCHLA DEL Learning list for discussion and for DEL-enrolled home-based education in British Columbia. While BCHLA supports minimal government intervention and cannot advocate for DEL enrollees on a political or legal basis, we recognize that facilitating a school-based program at home has many practical similarities to traditional registered homeschooling. This list provides a place for BC parents to discuss practical issues in the specific light of DEL enrollment. This list is moderated by a DEL participant and BCHLA directors.
