Judging the sufficiency of that home education and the safeguarding of the children would be the task of the local authority, as it is for other home educators, but, given the particular character of Haredi life and its consistency, it might well be of help to local authorities and to Haredi communities if a standard way of assessing Haredi home education could be agreed. That is what I set out to do in Amendment 468, but I did so in rather too clumsy a way to wish to focus on it in detail.
