Process of setting up alternative education
As soon as a need for educational support has been agreed by Hillingdon's named officer, the Pupil Support team will request baseline assessment information and curriculum plans from the child's school to inform the planning of educational provision. This information, together with advice from medical professionals, will ensure that the education provided is effectively matched to the child's needs.
The pupil's programme will be prepared by Pupil Support team in consultation with the school, the parent/carers, and with the pupil (depending on their age). The team will also liaise with related services as necessary, such as the Special Educational Needs and Disability Services (SEND), Child and Adolescent Mental Health Services (CAMHS), Participation Team, and health services.
