SN children

Anyone know about Home Education for a short period of time?

Have posted in Home ED, but I know some of you do this as well!
I have a 5 year old with special needs and an 8 year old with no SEN. We are moving schools in January, but my child with SN can't move straight away as he is not toilet trained (due to his needs) and needs a changing bed in the new school. There will be an 8 week wait for this.
I want to home educate him as he is learning NOTHING at school (apart from how to use a pair of scissors!)
How would I go about this for such a short period of time? Can I deregister him, then add to another school roll so quickly? Any advice greatly appreciated!

if you are moving house you wont need to de-register from existing school. Just leave. Then keep him at home until the place is ready at the new school. Bit disgusting the changing area will take 8 weeks.
