Katie Price told her followers that her son Jett is being educated within her household, but did not give any further details on his class structure.
The model is the mother of five children, including 21-year-old son Harvey whose father is 51-year-old ex-fling Dwight Yorke, 18-year-old son Junior and 16-year-old daughter Princess, who she shares with 50-year-old ex-husband Peter Andre, and nine-year-old son Jett and eight-year-old daughter Bunny - who she shares with 36-year-old exotic dancer Kieran Hayler.
The 45-year-old made the admission during a TikTok live Q&A with fans.
Katie gave an update on her nine-year-old son - revealing he has been out of school for nine months.
She explained: "Jett is good.
"He hasn't been to school for nine months, so he has homeschooling at the moment."
Back in January, Katie shared that Jett is "dealing with so much", prompting a lot of questions from her followers.
Captioning the post, she told fans: “My precious little boy Jett is dealing with so much at the moment and it’s times like this when I make him feel safe, loved and protected and help him get through everything.
“I love him so much our bond is incredible,” followed by a love heart emoji.

Katie is not the only celebrity to have turned to homeschooling her children.
Loose Women star Stacey Solomon has been a vocal advocate of teaching kids at home, as she praised the benefits it has had for her children.
She explained in a magazine article back in 2018: “Before I get started, I would like to say that every child is different and therefore responds differently to methods of teaching.
“Also, this wasn't a decision we made lightly. It's one we've been pondering over for a few years.
"When Zachary was halfway through Year Two he began to lose some of my favourite parts of his personality. Before that, he was often cheeky and making jokes, he never worried what people thought of him.
"He was a happy-go-lucky child, always inquisitive and wanting to know EVERYTHING about everything... He became very quiet and a little sad."
She added: "Homeschooling has always been at the back of my mind, because whenever I am with the boys and we are out in different environments their senses heighten and their enthusiasm to learn is at its best."
