Children's Hospital School at Gt Ormond Street and UCH

The Children's Hospital School at Great Ormond Street Hospital (GOSH) and University College Hospital (UCLH) aims to minimise the interruption and disruption to children and young people's education so that academic progress and an interest in learning will continue throughout a hospital admission, as far as medical circumstances permit.

Our goal is to provide optimum access to learning for school-aged inpatients. We work with children, families, schools, local authorities and our NHS partners to ensure equality of access to education, opportunity and support for children with medical needs and disabilities.

We aim to provide an enriching and enjoyable experience for all our pupils which ensures normality through education, helps to prevent anxiety about school work and fosters a sense of achievement.
