In Tasmania, families are choosing homeschooling in growing numbers, and for good reason. Whether your child needs a fresh start, a more flexible schedule, or simply a way to learn that suits them, homeschooling gives you that freedom.
In Tasmania, children aged 5 to 18 are required to register with the Office of the Education Registrar (OER) before beginning. The process is straightforward and well-supported under the Education Act 2016. Euka is here to guide you through every step.
Euka’s program builds on the Australian Curriculum, designed from the ground up for home learners from Prep to Grade 12. Whether you’re in Hobart, Launceston, regional Tasmania, or anywhere across the state, your child can study at their own pace, on their own schedule.
Ready to enrol?
We offer a curriculum for every stage of learning – kindergarten, primary, secondary, and senior. The first step in enrolling is simply selecting your child’s grade level.
Homeschooling in Tasmania is a legal, well-supported education pathway governed by the Education Act 2016. Here’s what you need to know to get started.
Register with the OER
All Tasmanian children aged 5 to 18 must be registered with the Office of the Education Registrar (OER) before beginning homeschooling. Registration is free. New registrations require a Home Education Program (HEP).
Choose a curriculum
There is no mandatory state-specific curriculum for home educators in Tasmania. The OER requires your program to be comprehensive and suited to your child, but the choice is yours. Euka provides a complete Australian Curriculum-aligned program that gives you a recognised national framework and all the documentation the OER expects.
Start learning
Once your registration is approved, your child can begin. Lessons are delivered online through Euka’s Student Portal, with a Parent Portal for tracking progress and accessing reports.
Submit your annual HESP
Each year, the OER will contact you to submit a renewal. Your HESP includes a reflection on what worked, what did not, and what you will change, plus a plan for the coming year. Euka’s Registration Service prepares all your documentation.
What curriculum do homeschooled students follow in Tasmania?
There is no mandatory state-specific curriculum for home educators in Tasmania. Families are free to choose their educational approach, but must demonstrate to the OER that their program is comprehensive and suits their child.
Euka provides a complete Australian Curriculum-aligned program from Pre-K through to Grade 12, giving Tasmanian families a recognised national framework to anchor their HEP or HESP to.
While each Australian state has its own adapted version of the national curriculum, the Australian Curriculum is widely recognised across the country. In practice, OER assessors are familiar with Australian Curriculum-based programs and respond well to the structured scope and sequence documentation that Euka’s Registration Service produces.
Your child benefits from nationally recognised learning standards, and you get clear documentation that satisfies the OER’s requirements.
The key learning areas covered by Euka
Euka’s program covers all eight Australian Curriculum learning areas from Prep to Grade 12, giving you the breadth of coverage the OER looks for when assessing your Home Education Program.
• English: Literacy, reading, writing, and language across all grade levels.
• Mathematics: Numeracy, algebra, geometry, and problem-solving from Prep to Grade 12.
• Science: Biology, chemistry, physics, and earth sciences, with hands-on activities.
• Humanities and Social Sciences (HASS): History, geography, civics, and economics.
• The Arts: Visual arts and performing arts, including music, drama, and design.
• Languages: Interactive language learning available from primary through secondary.
• Health and Physical Education: Wellbeing, nutrition, fitness, and personal development.
• Technologies: Digital literacy, design thinking, and emerging technologies.
Why embrace homeschooling
Build self confidence through ownership
When children have greater ownership over their learning, they develop real self-belief, and the skills to carry it with them into whatever comes next.
Study anywhere, anytime, at your own pace
Euka’s program is fully online. Your child can study from home, a library, a cafe, or anywhere your family happens to be, whenever works best for you.
Balance study with elite sport, the arts, or life
Homeschooling gives students the flexibility to train, compete, perform, or travel without sacrificing their education. Study around football training, dance rehearsals, or a family trip, not the other way around.
Safe, supportive learning environment
Away from playground pressures and negative social dynamics, homeschooling gives children the space to focus on learning, build confidence, and grow at their own pace.
OER registration and reporting in Tasmania
Tasmanian families are required to register with the OER under the Education Act 2016 before beginning homeschooling. Children aged 5 to 18 must be registered, and the OER may select families for an annual review at any point.
Euka’s Registration Service prepares all the documentation you need, including your Home Education Program (HEP) for new registrations and your Home Education Summary and Program (HESP) for renewals. You download it and submit it to the OER yourself.
With greater flexibility, homeschooled kids engage with the world around them more than kids stuck in a classroom. They learn from real-world projects, community groups, sport or excursions, and have the time to pursue their passions or take on work experience.
Homeschooled kids are lonely
Homeschooled students socialise in many different ways through sport, clubs, co-ops, meetups, and more. They’re not limited to one classroom, they build friendships across age groups, settings, and interests.
Homeschooled kids don’t do extracurricular activities
Many families specifically choose homeschooling to enable their child to pursue their passion whether that’s music, dance, coding, sport, drama, and more. With the additional flexibility that homeschooling provides, students can balance their learning around their chosen pursuit.
Homeschooled kids just play all day
Homeschooling is far more efficient than a traditional classroom. Euka students enjoy learning in ways that suit them. They complete their required study in around 2 to 3 hours each day; giving them time to dive more deeply into subjects that interest them or pursue their passions.
Homeschooling lacks structure
At Euka, we structure our programs to maximise learning and growth. Our lessons are mapped week-by-week, with progress you can see. Families get the benefit of a clear plan with the freedom to adapt it to their life.
Homeschooling is a last resort
For many Euka families, homeschooling is a conscious choice; a proactive decision to prioritise wellbeing, flexibility, and real-world learning. It’s not a backup plan; it’s a better-fit option.
Homeschooled kids are sheltered
With greater flexibility, homeschooled kids engage with the world around them more than kids stuck in a classroom. They learn from real-world projects, community groups, sport or excursions, and have the time to pursue their passions or take on work experience.

Euka’s program is built on the Australian Curriculum, which gives Tasmanian families a structured, nationally recognised framework that OER assessors are familiar with — making it straightforward to demonstrate the breadth and quality the OER requires.
The Home Education Program (HEP) is used for new registrations. It explains what your child will learn and how you will support their learning in the year ahead.
The Home Education Summary and Program (HESP) is used for annual renewals. It outlines what your child has learnt during the past year and sets out your plan for their learning in the year ahead. It includes a three-part reflection covering what worked well, what did not work as expected, and what changes you will make.
Euka’s Registration Service prepares both documents for you. You submit them to the OER.
They are different education pathways with different structures.
Distance education in Tasmania means your child is enrolled in a recognised distance education provider. They follow a structured timetable and are taught by registered teachers.
Homeschooling means your child is registered with the OER but not enrolled in any school. With Euka, your child follows a structured program at their own pace through our Student Portal, without the rigid timetable or live classroom schedule of a distance education provider.
Yes. Euka works for families anywhere in Tasmania. Whether you’re in Hobart, Launceston, Devonport, or Burnie, the program is fully online and accessible from wherever your family is based.
All you need is an internet connection. Lessons also include printable activity sheets, so families in areas with limited connectivity can download and print materials when online to work through them offline.
Any student from Prep to Grade 12 can homeschool with Euka. All Tasmanian students aged 5 to 18 must be registered with the OER.
Students aged 18 or older do not need to register. They can simply inform their current school and begin.
No. Many Euka parents work full-time. Our program is designed for self-directed learning, with built-in marking and easy-to-follow guides that fit into your schedule, not take it over.
No teaching experience is needed. Euka’s program is written by qualified teachers and delivered directly to your child, step by step, lesson by lesson. Parents guide and support; the program does the teaching.
Euka focuses on developing critical thinking, problem-solving, digital literacy, and independence: skills that serve students well beyond school, whether they pursue further study, a career, or their own path.
