Oh yes, there are quite some solutions as you live on the boarder! You can check with West River Academy, they might cover Austria/Switzerland as an umbrella school and you could find an address there in these countries for your kids. Otherwise flag theory, you have the option to let your credit card travel a bit ;) and maybe take a look at staatenlos.de they have a really really cool dude (Chris) that is helping Germany based families with these issues. Let me know if that helps in any way, and if not, I'll ask some more people in my network for ideas ♥️ ♥️

Fab! I’ll start with these and let you know!! Thank you kindly. Flag theory is definitely on the table but incase we aren’t able to do that by 2030, we need a plan B. Scared if I let my oldest start school, he’ll resent me for pulling him out. It’s already grating on me because his local friends and cousins will all go to school. Need to find a local network across the borders to hook him into, also for me, very difficult to socialise when the topic of conversation with other mums is school centric. I’m also still on the fence about kindergarten.
Oh yes, I feel you, it's not the easy way to do it like this. But in the end it's worth it! And the people in Austria and Switzerland are much more open minded when it comes to homeschooling, at least from my experience. And Switzerland has some nice free/micro-schools, that might also be an alternative.
