How We Support You
Partnership Provision for Local Authorities
Eton Academy works in partnership with local authorities across England to deliver high-quality online alternative provision for students aged 5-16 who cannot access mainstream education.
​
Our DfE OEAS-accredited provision helps you meet statutory obligations, support SEND pupils, and provide educational continuity for vulnerable learners—from emergency placements to long-term provision.
Why Partner With Eton Academy?
DfE OEAS Accredited
We're one of only ten providers nationally to achieve DfE OEAS accreditation—meeting rigorous standards for online alternative provision, safeguarding, and outcomes.
Rapid Response
We can enroll students within 48-72 hours, helping you meet 6th day obligations and respond to urgent placement needs.
Flexible Commissioning Options
Whether you need individual spot placements, block contracts, or framework agreements, we work with you to design the right commissioning model.
Safeguarding Partnership
Our Principal serves as Designated Safeguarding Lead and maintains close liaison with your teams, attending multi-agency meetings and coordinating around safeguarding plans.
Live, Interactive Teaching
Every lesson is taught live by qualified UK teachers—never pre-recorded. Students engage in real-time, build relationships with teachers, and receive immediate feedback.
Full Key Stage Coverage
We provide provision from KS2 through KS4, including GCSE pathways. Few online AP providers cover primary—we do, supporting early intervention for younger pupils.
Specialist Alternative Provision Expertise
Our teachers are trained in trauma-informed practice, SEND support, and working with students who have experienced exclusion, anxiety, and complex needs. This isn't mainstream teaching delivered online—it's specialist AP practice.
What We Offer Local Authorities
Flexible Commissioning Options
Every local authority has different needs. We offer:
​
Individual Spot Placements
Emergency or planned placements for individual students—ideal for urgent 6th day provision or one-off needs.
​
Block Contracts
Reserve a set number of places annually for predictable capacity and preferential rates.
​
Framework Agreements
Call-off arrangements for responsive support when you need it, with pre-agreed terms and pricing.
​
Part-Time or Full-Time Packages
Flexible hours to suit student needs—from a few hours weekly to full-time timetables.
​
Short-Term or Long-Term Provision
6-12 week intervention programs or ongoing provision while students await permanent placements.
How We Work Together
Partnership Approach
Schools and settings remain the lead agencies. We deliver the academic curriculum while your teams focus on pastoral care, therapeutic interventions, and multi-agency coordination.

Regular updates, shared data, quarterly reviews. We work collaboratively with schools, social care, and commissioning teams.
