Hospital and Outreach Education

Hospital and Outreach Education (HOE) is a pupil referral unit located in Northampton, serving children and young people aged 5 to 18 who are unable to attend mainstream schools due to complex medical or mental health conditions. The unit operates under the Skylark Partnership Trust and is commissioned by North and West Northamptonshire local authorities, providing educational support to both inpatients at local hospitals and those in the community.

The curriculum at HOE is tailored to meet the individual needs of its pupils, ensuring that they receive appropriate educational opportunities despite their health challenges. The school emphasizes building warm and trusting relationships between staff and students, which is reflected in positive feedback from both pupils and parents.

With a current enrolment of 6 students and a capacity of 150, HOE is committed to creating a supportive environment that enables children to thrive academically and personally. The school aims to empower its students, helping them to overcome obstacles and achieve their potential during difficult times.
