Pupil attendance and absence notifications

Elective Home Education (EHE)

All schools are required to notify their Local Authority when a parent wishes to remove a child from their register, to elect to Home Educate.

Please note, schools are encouraged to request a meeting with parents to fully discuss their decision to withdraw, and on contacting our department a member of our team may attend the meeting, if appropriate.  The aim of this meeting is for parents to share any concerns they may have but also an opportunity for school to share all relevant information about EHE, including duties and responsibilities of the parent, to support parents in making a fully informed decision.

If your school needs to inform the Local Authority of a child who has been withdrawn to home educate, please use the link below.
