Introduction to Education for Kinship Carers

School and education is very important for children and young people. Depending on the age and circumstances of the child in your care, you may need to apply for a school place or change their current school. This can be daunting, but information in this section will be able to help.

Our dedicated education and learning webpage provides information about all services available in Rotherham. Remember, that you are not alone so if you have any questions about school and education, get in touch with our team and they will be able to help.
