Home education checks
Once we are aware that you have decided to home educate your child, a member of our inclusion team will contact you to discuss the education you intend to provide for your child.
To help you prepare for this visit complete the initial form.
Prepare for an EHE initial visit
After three months, an elective home education (EHE) adviser will contact you to arrange further visits to discuss your child鈥檚 progress.
Prepare for an EHE advisor visit
If you would like the visits to take place somewhere other than in your home, this can be arranged. Your child does not have to be present but our advisers find it helpful if they are.
If you are not giving your child a suitable education
If provision is judged to be 鈥榰nsuitable鈥�, the EHE adviser will arrange to discuss this further.
If you are still not giving your child a suitable education at that time, we may serve a school attendance order (SAO) which means you must register your child with a school or provide suitable education.
We will give parents every opportunity to provide their child with a suitable education. We will only serve an SAO as a last resort.
