What is the Medical Home Tuition Passport?
The Medical Home Tuition Passport provides temporary schooling for students too unwell for school, managed by local authorities (LAs) via Hospital & Home Tuition Services (HTHTS) using referrals from clinicians, ensuring education continues during physical illness or mental health crises, helping them reintegrate to school smoothly. Access requires a consultant's letter, and services vary by LA, potentially funded through an EHCP or LA budgets, with the goal to offer as much curriculum access as health allows.
What It Is
- A tailored education service for children who can’t attend school due to health reasons, provided at home or another suitable venue.
- Ensures every child receives a high-quality, personalised education and supports transitions back to mainstream school.
