At the Royal Orthopaedic Hospital, James Brindley provide education for young people, aged between 16-19, whilst they are receiving inpatient care.

An internal hospital referral system is in operation via the transition nurse and there are many ways in which we can support patients with their education whilst admitted.

Types of support

• A teacher or tutor will visit you at an agreed time to support work set by your school or college
• If you have not yet attained a Level 2 qualification in English & Maths we can provide specialist support
• We may be able to provide some direct teaching for you – 'A' Level subjects if you are staying for 10 days or more.  This may be lessons delivered by our virtual classroom
• Careers advice from our Careers Team if you are not at school or college
• We can arrange examination to be taken within hospital in conjunction with your home school or college provider
