Review into Elective Home Education

The Panel will continue its review into Elective Home Education and will consider why parents and carers may choose to deregister their child from the school roll in favour of Elective Home Education, noting that 20% of children go back into school within 6 months of deregistration.  The Panel will hear from Stewart Vaughan, Headteacher of Priory School as well as other headteachers.
