Moving to any new school can be daunting, but joining an online school is a whole new experience. For James, starting at King’s InterHigh was a bit scary at first, but it soon became the best school he had ever been to. “The first weeks are a bit different, but once you get used to it, I think it’s even better than a physical school,” he says. King’s InterHigh, an online school, uses advanced technology to create a flexible learning experience for students all around the world.
Once James enrolled at King’s InterHigh, which follows a British curriculum for students aged seven to 19, he says he was supported straight away. “It’s very welcoming,” he says. James is studying the international baccalaureate (IB) diploma online as his family didn’t want him to have to change schools due to relocations. He says his initial nerves were quickly put to rest. “They have these welcome meetings where they explain everything,” he says. Students can also do their GCSEs and A-levels at the school.
