Home schooling post-COVID

05/11/23 @Drmagic.  Hi, Pete, nice to see you around again.  Your girlfriend should talk to the Diretora/Diretor of her daughter's school, tell her about the opportunity to spend considerable time abroad and about the resources (i.e., you, a working professional) available to her, and ask about available options for her daughter to keep up with her classmates,

I'm not aware of any formal relaxation of the the barriers to home schooling, but resources for distance learning were developed at many levels and in many places in Brazil during the pandemic and, with a suggestion and a little imagination on the school's part, some of them may still be available to meet her needs.

Abthree suggestion is the best course of action.  Talk to the Principal at the school she is enrolled in Brazil, to make sure there is some path she can undertake to comply. 

There's no culture of home schooling in Brazil. So she won't earn credits on home schooling.

Your odds might improve if she is enrolled in a Private and Accredited School in Brazil. If she is in Public School here, I| doubt they will accommodate to her needs. 

Another way to forgo this is to temporarily go on a furlough ( trancar a matricula ) knowing she will resume once you are back.  Good private schools can accommodate to your daughter's schooling progress. 

Speaking for myself, as a kid in elementary school, I got bumped a year grade when the sisters ( Catholic School ) realized my aptitudes and intellectual skills would be better suited to upperclassman status ( then 3rd to 4th ).

@abthree thanks for the suggestion.

Pete
