Educating your child at home (elective home education)

Further information

We have prepared an Elective Home Education booklet which covers the legal rights and responsibilities of parents and the Local Authority. Towards the front there is useful information and the back parent recommendations, websites, apps, groups and places where you can seek further advice and guidance on home education.

We have also started a Coventry City Council Elective Home Education Facebook page, which gives information and advice on what is available for home schoolers in Coventry.

Regional support is available:

  • Please contact the EHE team if you would like to discuss your child's options for 16-18.
  • If your child has SEND you may wish to seek further advice and support via the SENDIASS website.
  • If your child has reached the end of statutory school age and you would like further information about employment, education or training options in the city Coventry Job Shop can provide support and advice.
