Can a statemented child be home educated?
Yes, however, where a child has a statement of special educational needs and is home-educated, it remains the LEAs duty to ensure that the childs needs are met. The statement must remain in force and the LEA must ensure that parents can make suitable provision, including provision for the childs SEN. If the parents arrangements are suitable, the LEA is relieved of its duty to arrange the provision specified in the statement.
