Welcome to Britannia School Online
Britannia School Online brings together the richness and heritage of British school education with leading online learning technology and teaching practices. We provide fully online global British education, offering an online education to girls and boys aged 7-18. Specifically designed for effective full-time online learning.
About us
Britannia School Online is a specifically designed fully online British school that brings the ethos and academic excellence of British education into the homes of pupils across the UK and around the world. Welcoming girls and boys aged 7-18.
Our rigorous educational programmes are specifically designed for online learning to ensure that pupils are fully engaged and that teachers bring out the best in every learner. A combination of independent study and live lessons guided by expert teachers allows for a truly flexible, personalised education.
Many schools had to quickly deliver learning online as a result of COVID-19. Britannia School Online is not a response to that situation, but a specifically designed full online learning experience that has been several years in development, building on our partner company Pearson's experience in online schools spanning nearly 20 years.
Pupils study from home, joining live taught lessons with expert teachers, in small class sizes with peers across the world. This is within the structure of a complete school programme that also includes the flexibility of self-paced learning, extracurricular activities, and a Success Coach to help keep pupils on track and thriving.
While our pupils work toward their choice of future UK private school and future UK universities, they develop a worldwide network of friendships to last a lifetime.

Benefits of online learning
An online school of high caliber that delivers the British curriculum performs highly in these two important areas: the quality of education and schools and career prospects. Our online schooling programme has a number of other unique benefits such as:
-
Individualisation: Pupils follow an individual learning pathway, working through self-study materials at a pace that suits them and studying in one to one or small classes with lessons carefully tailored to their needs. Every student is seen and heard, and no one is left behind.
-
Participation: In the self-study aspect of our courses, there are more opportunities for pupils to participate and respond to content than in a traditional face-to-face environment, and more time to reflect on topics and give deeper thought to responses.
-
Global networks: Pupils work alongside peers from across the globe, broadening their understanding of different cultures and building an international network of friends.
-
Visibility for parents: Parents have unprecedented visibility into their children’s education, with real-time access to their performance in their studies.
-
Flexibility: Online courses allow pupils to build their own unique schedules, teaching them how to balance study and work with other commitments.
-
The promotion of self-discipline: Britannia School Online supports students to become better independent learners and to develop strong self-discipline skills, which is invaluable preparation for future British private school or university.
-
Accessibility: Online learning provides the opportunity for self-paced study away from the distractions of the physical classroom, providing an environment in which a broad range of students can thrive.
We know that engagement with teachers is essential for success. Expert online teachers have additional skills: coaching and motivating pupils, analysing pupil progress data, and using it to tailor their teaching, communicating with resonance in an online environment. At Britannia School Online we recruit teachers not just for their academic and pedagogical credentials, but also with these skills in mind.
