Home schooling enrolments in Queensland have surged, according to the report. The increase has been linked to concerns about bullying by parents. Some families are said to have turned to home-based education because children faced bullying at the hands of parents. The announcement did not provide the enrolment total or the previous comparison base, and it did not define the period covered. It also did not explain how many cases involved the reported conduct. The shift could place additional pressure on home-education support services and oversight bodies. Without further figures, it is not possible to determine how much of the surge came from that concern rather than other factors.
