HHTS is a Local Authority service provided by Rise Carr College to meet the needs of children too unwell to attend school
A priority focus for the Home and Hospital teaching service is the well-being of the child/young person. Removing children/young people from their peer support and familiar environment can impact negatively on outcomes and, once in a small environment, some children/young people find it very hard to transition back to mainstream education.
Each referral will have individual circumstances and variable factors for consideration including, but not limited to; the nature of the illness and the age of the child. It is with this in mind that it is integral the Home Hospital Teaching Service has a graduated and varied offer to meet the diversity of presenting need. This diverse offer should seek to maximise the potential for innovate use of technology to ensure minimal educational disruption for children and young people and to avoid service saturation.
