I've just been e-mailed (can't remember giving the address but must have) by a lady responsible for 'monitoring' home-ed kids in Southwark (SE London). She met me and eldest DD in Oct 2007 (the nursery school she attended for a few weeks 'had' to disclose to the LEA that she was now being HE'd, even tho I didn't have to ). Her name is Alison, and she's actually very nice! A down-to-earth Scot, she was perfectly happy about HE, happily met me at the local library, didn't quiz DD at all, wrote a decent report and then left us alone. Subsequently we moved LEA, but in the last month have moved back into Southwark - and NOW she e-mails me! Wants to meet again. DD is now six, very much of school age now, so I don't know if expectations/requirements will suddenly have sharpened...
Am I being paranoid? She was perfectly nice last time, so why not now? I just feel so much more relaxed not being 'known' to the LEA, as you never know what gov policy is going to come up with next. But I would be lying by ommission if I ignore her e-mail, which I would feel bad about... What to do?!!

Do I own up to moving back to LEA where DD was previously known?
