About Luton’s Virtual School

The Virtual School helps children in care and care-experienced young people succeed in education. While we don’t have a physical building, we provide events, training, and learning opportunities.

How we can help

We work with schools and other services to track progress and ensure each child gets the support they need.

We collaborate with schools, social workers, and professionals to:

  • improve education and well-being services
  • offer advice, training, and guidance
  • connect children to health and mental health support
  • support education, training, and job opportunities
  • provide learning and leisure activities
  • ensure smooth transitions back into school

Our commitment

We aim to remove barriers to learning and create high expectations with strong support. Working with schools, colleges, and children’s services, we:

  • promote attendance, progress, and inclusion
  • strengthen partnerships with local authorities
  • raise awareness of challenges faced by children in care
  • support trauma-informed and attachment-aware practices
