Hospital and Home Tuition (HHTS)
At our Hospital and Home Tuition Service we care for the most vulnerable young people who, at a difficult time in their lives, need support. The young people are referred by their school with support from the medical professionals. Our main purpose, while they are with us, is to ensure, where possible, that the young person is able to continue with their education and return to their home school as soon as they are able to.
The students are taught either 1:1 or in small groups to enable them to receive the individual support they need to overcome any identified medical, emotional or social issues in a calm supportive environment. Each young person is at the heart of the process and through a coordinated approach, involving a range of professionals, we deliver a personalised approach to their learning. For any further information or help, please call 01228227452.
