The information requested is not known. However, 822 pupils received education outwith school due to ill health in 2008-09.
Local authorities are required by the Standards in Scotland''s Schools etc Act 2000 to make special arrangements for pupils who are unable to attend school due to prolonged ill health to receive education elsewhere than at an educational establishment.

To ask the Scottish Executive what steps ministers are taking to ensure equity of access to education for all sick children and young people irrespective of illness, age and where they live.
Answer
Local authorities are required by the Standards in Scotland''s Schools etc Act 2000 to make special arrangements for pupils who are unable to attend school due to prolonged ill health to receive education elsewhere than at an educational establishment. This duty applies in relation to all children and young people who are unable to attend school due to prolonged ill health irrespective of illness, age and where they live.
In 2001 the Scottish Government issued guidance to local authorities to support them in the implementation of this duty.

To ask the Scottish Executive whether ministers monitor access to education for sick children and young people.
Answer
Scottish ministers do not monitor access to education for sick children and young people as education authorities are responsible for the provision of education to children and young people who are unable to attend school due to ill health.
The Scottish Government collects information on the number of children and young people who receive education outwith school due to ill health. This is available from the statistics publication Children Educated Outwith School 2009 which is available from:
http://www.scotland.gov.uk/Publications/2009/10/26154423/0.
In addition, as part of their routine programme of inspection, HMIE inspect hospital education and outreach services across Scotland.

To ask the Scottish Executive whether all sick children and young people in Scotland are treated in line with the European Association for Children in Hospital (EACH) Charter.
Answer
NHS boards in Scotland take account of the European Association for Children in Hospital (EACH) Charter when delivering healthcare. The Healthcare Quality Strategy launched by the Scottish Government in May 2010 has the same aims and ambitions as the EACH Charter.
