What is EOTAS/ EOTIS?
Let's clear up the jargon
Education Otherwise Than At School (EOTAS) is a legal option for children who cannot attend school, providing personalised learning at home or in the community. We specialise in making this journey simple, supportive, and successful for families and local authorities.
“As an EOTAS parent, I’ve found that this can be truly self-paced learning—perfect for children recovering from school trauma. For those who feel too anxious for anything that feels like school, there are lots of crafty builds and monthly themes to gently inspire them out of burnout. You can curate learning to their interests with a huge database of AQAs, making it a gentle way to recover and rediscover their work. EOTAS is hard and often agreed at a place of absolute trauma and distress—at this stage, parents need to have faith that this could work for them.”
— Jodie H (EOTAS parent)
Who is it for?
Our EOTAS packages are designed for families, carers, and local authorities supporting children who need education outside of a mainstream setting.
They can be personalised to the learner needs, and provide a combination of semi structured learning options (AQA certified and curriculum linked) as well as strategies to certify other things that the learner may be engaging in, in other areas of their learning (as part of their EHCP).
Full resources from project based kits (manufactured in house), to workbooks (written by our teachers), and recorded lessons can be added to packages from KS2- KS4.
Functional Skills Exams are available (remotely or in person) in English and Maths up to Level 2.

"We spent many years in turmoil and education debates. LCB took the time to understand and care. It was beyond any budget, and the simplest actions changed our lives."
