The Elective Home Education Team

The Elective Home Education (EHE) Team is staffed by one FTE Lead EHE Officer and three-part time EHE Link Workers (working the equivalent of one FTE).

Developments in 2016/17

 A series of successful meetings with Abingdon and Witney College, and Banbury College have taken place. Information has been shared to facili- tate good practice and to promote the integration of 14-16 yrs. old’s into col- lege placements. Safeguarding has been a priority in discussions, so that the process of removal from school roll is monitored carefully.

 We have liaised with Youth Engagement and Opportunities team to ensure NEET information is communicated to Year 11’s. Destinations post year 11 EHE students are sought and tracked. This continues to be ongoing and in- formation is now shared earlier in the year to ensure students have the correct information and time to plan and make informed choices.

 We continue to work closely with the Community Pediatric Service and Health Nurses.
