Education Inclusion Service (EIS)

For education other than at school

• EIS is part of Children’s Services within Hampshire County Council
• The key objective of  EIS is to ensure that all children have access to effective education.
• We work with pupils, parents, teachers, schools and other agencies to secure the best possible education outcomes for children.
• For the vast majority of pupils school is the best place, however for some (due to exclusion (attendance) / behaviour issues, medical needs or emotional vulnerability) alternative provision is required and EIS acts as broker to arrange appropriate alternative provision.
• In Hampshire there are two EIS teams, East and West; each team has:
  • Area Strategic Manager (ASM) – Alternative Provision
  • Manager Vulnerable Children
  • Primary Support - Behaviour Support Teams (BST)
  • Inclusion Officer and team
  • Education Centres (Pupil Referral Units) – secondary.
