Re: Full name of child            d.o.b. Date of birth

 

Dear Head’s name

 

Dear sir/madam

I am writing to you today to confirm my earlier letter of de-registration for my child name with the purpose of educating him at home in accordance with section 7 of the Education Act 1996.

In law, de-registration from a school in England, which is not a special school, is to be performed upon written request to the proprietor of the school by the parent.

Failure to deregister upon instruction to do so is a criminal offence. Whether or not the child has an SEN has no bearing on the process.

You will find the relevant legal framework in the Education (Pupil Registration) Regulation 2016 particularly section 8(1)(d).

Since deregistration has been unlawfully denied, it follows that any attempt to fine the parents for the child’s nonattendance is unenforceable.

I would be grateful if you would confirm to me that this has indeed happened according to my wishes.

I would also be grateful if any future communication is limited to written communication to this address (see above).

 

Yours sincerely

Dear sir/madam

I am writing to you today to confirm my earlier letter of de-registration for my child name with the purpose of educating him at home in accordance with section 7 of the Education Act 1996.

In law, de-registration from a school in Wales, which is not a special school, is to be performed upon written request to the proprietor of the school (In the case of state schools, that is the head teacher) by the parent.

Failure to de-register following an instruction to do so by a parent is a criminal offence. Whether or not the child has an SEN has no bearing on the process.

You will find the relevant legal framework in the Education (Pupil Registration) (Wales) Regulation 2010 particularly section 9(1)(d).

Since deregistration has been unlawfully denied, it follows that any attempt to fine the parents for the child’s nonattendance is unenforceable.

I would be grateful if you would confirm to me that this has indeed happened according to my wishes.

I would also be grateful if any future communication is limited to written communication to my address (see above).
