Hospital school

We also have a hospital school with teaching and support staff. Our school is open for children well enough to learn and the teaching staff are available during term time from 8.50am to 12.05pm and 12.55pm to 3.10pm. They support children with work from school, and provide work if they have none with them.

The hospital is also an exam centre so if children are missing important exams, then it may be possible for them to sit them in hospital.
