Providing information and support

3.15    Although authorities are not legally obliged to provide any resources

for young people educated at home, choosing to do so, particularly

where there are minimal resource implications, will help develop positive

relationships. This might include:

•     providing general advice and information;

•     allowing access to learning centre resources;

•     allowing access to school for health services such as vaccinations;

•     allowing access to school resources where feasible;

•     facilitating access to any discounted rates for educational materials;

•     providing access to local authority owned community and sportsfacilities;

•     facilitating access to Careers Wales and work experience;

•     providing assistance with identifying exam centres willing to accept

external candidates;

•     facilitating under-6 access to vocational and other courses at

further education colleges; and

•     facilitating access to CRB checks or approval schemes for tutors.

3.16    Authorities should also inform home educating families of any

projects or programmes, such as Out of School Hours Learning (OSHL)

or Study Support, whether provided by schools or other organisations,

asthey may be able to provide support and a range of activities for children

being educated at home.
