What you notice with My Life teams is that everyone really cares for the people they support, and they definitely have the best interests of that person at the heart of what they do. That not only means people get better quality care, but also that everyone works together to ensure the best outcomes for people.

So, what is EOTAS?Education Otherwise Than At School (EOTAS) is education arranged for children and young people who cannot receive a suitable education in school because of their individual circumstances.It isn’t a shortcut.It isn’t “giving up” on education.It isn’t lowering expectations.It’s about providing the right education in the right environment for the individual child.Under Section 19 of the Education Act 1996, local authorities have a legal duty to arrange suitable education for children who cannot attend school because of illness, exclusion or other reasons. In some cases, where it is necessary to meet a child’s needs, education may be delivered through EOTAS.We support families to put together their EOTAS for Equine, Animal Care, Horticulture, Catering and Hospitality at My Life Legacy. We offer traineeships for those who are leaving or have left school too!If you would like to know more contact us at [email protected] ... See MoreSee Less
