Is Unschooling Legal in India: A new trend has started in the field of education. It is called unschooling. In America, more than 2 million children are getting education from their homes. The 'unschooling' method is spreading rapidly in the world. Apart from the traditional school system, the trend of unschooling is making its place all over the world.
