There are two ways a child can enrol at The
Correspondence school (TCS). The first way is as an eligible
student where they do not have to pay fees, and go on the TCS roll.
To work out if your child may be eligible for TCS please ring TCS
on 0800 65 99 88.
The second way is as a fee-paying student. If you
would like to look at this as an option you still need to apply for
an exemption to home educate and explain in your application that
you will be purchasing TCS resources for your home education
programme.
The cost of each subject through TCS depends on
whether your child is at primary or secondary school. Please ring
TCS on 0800 65 99 88 to find out more information.
If you are applying to use TCS for your home
education programme please note that the Ministry of Education
still requires you to complete the full application including what
you will be teaching your child in the different subject areas.
This is because we need to be satisfied under section 21 of the
Education Act that you can "teach your child at least as regularly
and as well as in a registered school".
