Jacqueline Jossa has become the latest celebrity to take issue with the school system - admitting she may home-school her children in the future.
The EastEnders actress, who shares two daughters with former TOWIE star Dan Osborne, recently told her fans how home-schooling is "an argument I have in my own head all the time" because she feels that the school system is "dated".
In a recent Instagram post, the mum-of-two shared a clip of the Mel Robbins podcast, in which a discussion about whether sitting down for long periods of time can destroy a child's health was presented.
Writing a caption on her Instagram Story, Jacqueline, 31, admitted to her 3.5million followers: "It's so crazy to me that we send our kids to school to sit for hours everyday. When I see things like this I always toy with home-schooling."

Obviously school is amazing and I have nothing but good positive memories and experience so it’s always an argument I have in my own head all the time. Pros and cons etc…But like school is very similar to prison. That’s odd to me."

Jacqueline shares daughters Ella, nine, and Mia, five, with husband Dan, who is also a father to his son Teddy, 10, from a previous relationship. Last month, the soap star was forced to deny her marriage to the former reality TV star was in trouble following a nightmare trip abroad.
The famous couple whisked their children off to a holiday in sun-soaked United Arab Emirates (UAE), oblivious of the extreme weather they would encounter - witnessing a surprisingly torrential downpour and flooding. The unexpected rains didn't damper their spirits as Dan happily posted several snaps from the holiday on Instagram over the weekend, with one charming shot featuring his wife Jacqueline with their kids. The caption read: "Lovely week in Dubai."
Dan also gave a mention to the wild weather they had encountered during their stay, writing: "Mad we experienced that rain out there, floods were crazy, we were lucky, but hope everyone that was affected are ok." Lauren Branning actress Jacqueline expressed her love for Dan in the comments section saying: "I love you. Thank you for the memories."
Just days before, Jacqueline had dropped hints about the state of her relationship with hubby Dan in a separate post. She had treated fans to a series of holiday snaps, including a loved-up selfie of the pair. This came after whispers of a split began circulating when Dan was noticeably absent from her Easter weekend post.
Eagle-eyed fans pointed out that Jacqueline's other half was missing from the pics, prompting a frenzy of speculation in the comments. However, Jacqueline quickly shut down the rumours by posting a snap of Dan and their kids outside MJ: The Musical at London's Prince Edward Theatre.
She captioned the pic: "Can't stop thinking about this show! I wake up thinking about it. Thank you [Dan] for taking us and continuing to give us amazing memories with the babies. Excited for this half term to make some more!" Fast forward a few weeks and the fam jetted off on another getaway, this time to the UAE.
But the trip reportedly descended into chaos thanks to extreme weather conditions. A source dished to The Sun: "Dan and Jacqueline took the kids on a break to Dubai and it's ended up being a nightmare. They've been trapped by the storms and are concerned about getting back home. The airport is chaos."
