Home tuition
We have various support services and policies for the educating of children outside of the school environment.Parents/carers have a legal duty to make sure their child receives a suitable full-time education but this does not necessarily have to be at school. There is no rule about what a suitable education might be but it should prepare a child for life in modern society and allow them to reach their full potential.
When a parent/carer is advised that their child is excluded from school it can be a distressing and confusing time, for both the parents/carers and child - we offer support and advice to those in this situation.
Our Out of School Tuition team works across the county with individual pupils, who are unable to attend their school for specific reasons. Your child's school retains the responsibility for your child's education.
We provide on-line learning through our Virtual Classroom project, throughout Derbyshire for children who are unable to attend their mainstream schools for specific reasons.
