Dear [Mr H E D Teacher]

Re: [Your child’s name and date of birth]

I am writing to inform you that my son/daughter, [child’s name], will be receiving an education at home, otherwise than at school in accordance with Section 7 of the 1996 Education Act.

Therefore, I would be grateful if you would remove [his/her] name from the school register as from [date you wish child to be deregistered from] in accordance with the Education (Pupil Registration) Regulation 9 (1) (c) 1995.

Please confirm in writing that my [son/daughter] has been removed from the school register.

Thank you for your assistance.

Yours sincerely

[Your name]
