The Children's Hospital School

Welcome to The Children's Hospital School, a unique and invaluable educational establishment located within the Leicester Royal Infirmary in Leicester, United Kingdom. Our school is much more than just a point of interest - it is a fully functioning and accredited school that provides a high-quality education to children and young people who are receiving medical treatment as inpatients at the hospital.

Our dedicated team of teachers and teaching support staff works tirelessly to ensure that every child who attends our school has access to an education that is tailored to their individual needs and circumstances. As a hospital school, we understand that our pupils may be facing challenging medical conditions, and we are committed to supporting them on their learning journey, no matter what.

At The Children's Hospital School, we use a wide range of teaching methods and resources to create an engaging and stimulating learning environment for our students. Our curriculum is designed to be flexible, ensuring that we can meet the educational needs of children and young people from diverse backgrounds and at all levels of ability.

In addition to traditional classroom-based teaching, we also use technology and digital resources to enable remote learning for pupils who are unable to attend school in person. Our team of skilled and experienced teachers work with students across the age range, from primary through to sixth form, and we are accredited with a range of examination boards, enabling our students to gain valuable qualifications that are recognised by employers and higher education institutions.

The Children's Hospital School is a welcoming and inclusive community that provides a supportive and nurturing learning environment for children and young people who may be facing difficult and traumatic circumstances. Our team is committed to creating a positive and empowering learning culture that helps our students to develop resilience, confidence, and a love of learning.

So, whether you are a parent seeking an education for your child whilst they undergo medical treatment, or a healthcare professional looking for a partner to support your patients' education, we invite you to explore our website further and discover more about our school and the work we do.
