Cornwall Council - Elective Home Education
Services and organisations that have the Local Offer flash have filled out inclusion information, meaning that they meet the needs of people with Special Educational Needs and Disabilities (SEND)
Parents / carers have a duty to ensure that their children receive a suitable full time education. This can be either by regular attendance at school or otherwise.
The law allows parents / carers to educate their children at home instead of sending them to school, if they fulfil certain conditions.
Parents / guardians must inform the school in writing of their decision to home educate their child. The school should then follow the Elective Home Education (EHE) Inter-Agency Protocol. The child should be removed from school roll. A copy of the letter with the completed Elective Home Education Form should be sent to the Local Authority.
