Education Other Than At School (EOTAS)
Monitoring and safeguarding
Once the teaching arrangement is in place, the child's details are shared with the Inclusion and Vulnerable Learners Teams (VLT) by Special Educational Needs and Disabilities (SEND) Placements and Governance by email. The VLT Team Manager also receives a copy of the Special Educational Needs and Disabilities decision making panel (SENDMAP) minutes. The VLT will then be responsible will then be responsible for the duration of the Education Other Than At School (EOTAS) package to:
- monitor attendance and engagement with the teaching provision
- conduct safeguarding and welfare visits in instances where the child fails to attend scheduled sessions
- participate in the monitoring of the quality of the education and progress made (see Appendix 3)
Welfare visits are designed not only to encourage re-engagement with learning but also to ensure the child's overall wellbeing and safety in their current environment.
