A welcome from our founder
About Net School
Welcome to Net School. I am delighted to be able to tell you more about us and how we can support your child in the next steps on their learning journey.
Our mission has not changed
Having taught in both the state and private sector before moving into online teaching, I launched Net School in 2013. Net School combines quality and reliability, operating to the highest professional standards and working with the best and most engaging teachers who make learning fun. We offer the subjects that parents most want, in the way that best suits their individual needs.
Now, after over a decade of providing high quality online education, we are delighted that new families continue to discover the great opportunities that we can offer their children. With a range of Key Stage 3 and IGCSE courses, in addition to new Arts Award courses and our popular, free extra-curricular clubs, there is something for everybody.
In terms of our achievements in public examinations, in summer 2026 across all subjects, 95% of our IGCSE results were at levels 9–4 (the former A*–C grades), with a wonderful 53% of all IGCSE results being at levels 9–7 (A*–A grades). We are so proud of our students and teachers for all their hard work.
At Net School, we work hard to ensure your child gets the personal, focused attention they need to help them succeed. Please contact us today to discuss what Net School can offer your child and take the next step on their learning journey.

We are so proud of our students
Taught by subject specialists, many of whom are also examiners, Net School students can achieve outstanding results.
But our students are not only focused on their academic studies. We have many examples of our students reaching the highest levels in sports, theatre, robotics, golf, songwriting and performing, video making, slime retailing… an online learner certainly does not have to be at home on the computer all day.

Families like yours
Families come to us for all sorts of reasons
Here are four of them, each with a word from a Net School family.
Home educating
Take only the subjects you want, at the hours that fit what you already have in place. Nothing here assumes a full timetable.
“Of all the tutors we have used and groups we have organised, none have been as well planned or run as Net School.”
Zoe, parent — home educating four children for seven years
School has stopped working
Small live classes, the same teacher every week, and a pace that can be set around your child rather than a year group.
“For a child who used to be absent from school at least two days a week for three years, you and your team have turned him 360 degrees.”
Ashraf, parent
Working ahead, or catching up
Students do not have to join the course that matches their age. If your child is ready to move faster, or needs longer, we place them where the work is right.
“The classes being so intimate really make a group atmosphere, and all the individual attention from teachers really makes a difference.”
Naomi, former student
Living overseas
Lessons run to UK time on British syllabi, and students overseas can sit their exams at a centre near them.
“He is enjoying every single course deeply and he’s definitely doing his best to succeed.”
Anna, parent of a former student
In their own words
What our families say
“He has been asking for more since week 1! For a child who used to be absent from school at least two days a week for three years, you and your team have turned him 360 degrees. He enjoys the survival skills club and is looking forward to me taking him out in the desert to try them out.”
AshrafNet School parent“I’m starting at the University of Sheffield in a week to study Dentistry, and just wanted to send a huge thank you to everyone at Net School, especially my teachers, for all the help you gave me to get to this point.”
ClaireFormer Net School student“We are both qualified teachers and have been home educating our 4 children for the past 7 years. Of all the tutors we have used and groups we have organised or kids have been part of, none have been as well planned or run as Net School.”
ZoeNet School parent“Net School has been such an incredible experience for me. The classes being so intimate really make a group atmosphere, and all the individual attention from teachers really makes a difference. So thank you for creating this — I’m sure it has impacted the lives of many people.”
NaomiFormer Net School student“We think it is wonderful how the children are bonding with the teachers and actually care for them, something that rarely happens in school, thank you so very very much!”
SueParent of former students“I continue to be delighted with the level of attention and great teaching the children receive through Net School. Thank you to the whole team.”
LisaNet School parent“Thank you for helping me achieve the grades I got. Net School was really helpful in so many ways, not just learning, and I’m glad to have been there from the start.”
GarethFormer Net School student“We have been very happy with Net School for our two children. They have received individual attention and feedback from their teachers, who have been caring and interested in their progress. Net School has fitted very conveniently into our lives and the children have made some good friends.”
LucindeNet School parent“We are delighted with the way he has settled in to Net School this term and with his thoughtfully written and encouraging report.”
