  Yes, if that is where the CYP attends. CFA2014 s39 / s40 refer to school “or other educational institution”. So even if a ‘virtual school’ were not a school it could still be specified in an ECHP. The requirement to consider whether the CYP’s “attendance” would be incompatible with the efficient education of others does not (even if “attendance” connoted physical attendance) change that, nor does it impact on the question of whether such providers are ‘schools’.

  Where a CYP physically attends a placement part time, and then attends a virtual education provider part time arranged by the placement, then (depending on the facts) it is likely the placement the CYP physically attends should be named in Section I.
