St Michaels Infant School Mickleham, Dorking

Flexi-schooling at St Michael’s from September 2025

Flexi-schooling is a term you may or may not be familiar with. Essentially it is a hybrid form of learning, whereby pupils are Electively Home Educated for part of the week, but also attend school on other days. This is not a part-time timetable – all pupils are educated full time and this responsibility is shared by parents and school together. This is not a new thing – parents have always been able to request such an arrangement, and Headteachers make a decision on a case by case basis. 

Whilst we would always strongly encourage parents to take up a five-day place in school for their children, we recognise that for a variety of reasons where parents choose to EHE, a flexible arrangement is in the best interests of the child. In our quest to support as many families as we can, we are delighted to be able to offer Flexi- schooling here at St Michael’s CofE Infant School.

If you would like to know more about our inspirational curriculum timetable or our innovative Flexi-school offer at St Michael’s school, we would welcome the opportunity to meet with you to discuss further.
