| The NSW Department of Education does not know how many children are missing out on compulsory education, even though it is illegal for parents to keep their children away from school if they are not registered for home schooling.
In its submission to the state's first parliamentary inquiry into home schooling, the department says there is no system to register or track the movement of children within Australia or across schooling systems.
"This means there is no reliable way of determining the number of children who are not receiving a compulsory education (including unregistered home schoolers), both in NSW and across Australia," the department's submission says.
