Glossaries
Term | Definition |
---|---|
Temporary Home Schooling | A right, regulated by Flemish law, for long term and chronical ill children between 5 and 18 years old to get 4 hours of home schooling per week, organised by their school of belonging. |
Training | The acquisition of knowledge, skills, and competencies as a result of the teaching of vocational or practical skills and knowledge that relate to specific useful competencies. |
Why a glossary?
Due to the fact that the terms related to home and hospital education vary a lot in different contexts and countries, and that in English too there are several different names to refer to similar practices (home tuition, domiciliary learning…) as a basis to ensure an effective communication on the HHE themes, a common glossary is needed.
Therefore the LeHo network developed this one you can find here as a draft. It is till under the reviewing process by LeHo Board of Experts.
