Home education guidelines
If your child holds a Statement of Special Educational Needs or an Education Health Care plan
Parents have the same rights to home educate a child with a Statement of Special Educational Needs (SEN) or an Education Health and Care plan (EHCP).
We retain a duty to ensure that the needs identified in the statement/plan are being met, to maintain the statement and review it annually.
If your child is registered at a special school named in their Statement of Special Educational Needs or EHCP, they cannot be de-registered without the agreement of the local authority; for this you will need to speak to your child’s EHCP Co-ordinator.
