Medical Needs and Hospital Education Service (MNHES)
Who we are
Our provision is available for all children of compulsory school age residing in the Bradford Local Authority area who cannot attend school because of illness and health needs. The Local Authority is responsible for arranging suitable education for these
pupils who would not otherwise have a suitable education.
We also provide education for pupils admitted to the Children's Wards of AGH and BRI as well as pupils who receive regular treatment at either hospital.
What we offer
The service offers education based on an individual assessment of needs and what their health conditions will allow. This includes:
- Group education
- Paired education
- 1:1 education (in severe medical cases)
- Outreach education (in severe medical cases)
- Remote learning/online learning
- Learning work packs
- 1:1 education at AGH and BRI Children's Wards
The number of hours offered is dependent on the individual's health needs. 5 hours of Maths and English are offered, along with other curriculum areas to create a full time offer if the pupil's health need allows. MNHES
