Why CambriLearn

A British online school, taught live

Not a course library and not a set of recordings to work through alone. Real lessons, real teachers and a structured school year your child follows in real time.

A complete British education

Students follow the same International British Curriculum* taught in British schools, building towards International GCSE and Advanced Level qualifications that hold the same value as those sat in a classroom.

Qualified teachers, live lessons

Lessons are taught live by subject specialists who mark work, give feedback and track each student's progress through the term, with recordings available afterwards for revision.

Recognised worldwide

International GCSE and Advanced Level qualifications are accepted by universities across the UK and internationally, which suits families who move between countries or live outside the UK.

A structured school year

Timetabled terms, set lessons and clear milestones give the rhythm of a school day, the kind of structure that helps most students stay on track and lets parents see steady progress.

Exams arranged for you

We guide families through examination entry and sitting papers at approved centres worldwide, so you know exactly how your child gets from studying to a certificate, from the first term.

Built around the student

Class sizes stay small and support is close at hand, so a child who needs stretching and one who needs more time both get attention a large classroom cannot offer.

Two pathways

Choose the pathway that fits your child

Both pathways lead to International GCSEs and A Levels, studied online with qualified teachers. They differ in the examination board your child works towards, so you can pick the route that suits your family and your plans.

International British pathway

Prepares students for Cambridge* examinations

Our International British curriculum is accredited by Cognia and follows the British syllabus your child would study in a British school. It prepares students for Cambridge* International GCSE and Advanced Level examinations in the same subjects.

Preparing for Cambridge* and other international examinations

The International British curriculum we teach follows the British syllabus and is accredited by Cognia. It covers the same body of knowledge examined across the major British boards, so it prepares students for Cambridge* International GCSE and Advanced Level examinations in the subjects they study.

Families who intend their child to sit Cambridge* papers are welcome to speak to a consultant about how our teaching supports that goal, and about arranging examination entry at an approved centre.

CambriLearn is not a Cambridge registered or Cambridge approved school, and is not affiliated with, endorsed by or accredited by Cambridge. We are an approved Pearson Edexcel examination centre (centre number 94888) and are accredited by Cognia.

Common questions

International GCSE online school, answered

Can you study International GCSEs online?

Yes. International GCSEs are designed to be examined by written papers without coursework, which makes them well suited to online study. At CambriLearn, students learn the curriculum through live lessons with qualified teachers, then sit their examinations at an approved centre. The qualification earned is identical to one sat after classroom study.

What is the difference between a GCSE and an International GCSE?

Both are level-two secondary qualifications of equal standing. The International GCSE was developed for a global student body and is assessed almost entirely through final examinations rather than coursework. Universities and employers treat International GCSEs and GCSEs as equivalent, and the International GCSE is the version best suited to students studying online or living outside the United Kingdom.

What is the difference between the British and Pearson Edexcel pathways?

Both pathways lead to International GCSEs and A Levels and are studied online with the same kind of live teaching. The difference is the examination board. The International British pathway follows the British syllabus, is accredited by Cognia and prepares students for Cambridge* examinations. The Pearson Edexcel pathway leads to qualifications examined by Pearson Edexcel, for which CambriLearn is an approved centre. A consultant can help you choose based on your child's goals.

Are International GCSEs and A Levels from an online school recognised by universities?

Yes. The recognition comes from the qualification and the examination board, not from where the studying took place. International GCSEs and Advanced Levels from the major British boards, including Cambridge* and Pearson Edexcel, are accepted by universities across the United Kingdom and internationally, whether they were studied in a classroom or online.

How much does an online International GCSE school cost?

Fees depend on the number of subjects, the level of study and the level of support a family chooses. Studying online usually costs considerably less than a fee-paying day school. The clearest way to get an accurate figure is a short consultation, where we set out the options for your child's subjects and level.

Can my child sit Cambridge* examinations through CambriLearn?

CambriLearn is not a Cambridge registered or approved school and is not affiliated with or accredited by Cambridge. We teach the International British Curriculum*, which prepares students for international examinations in the same subjects, and we are an approved Pearson Edexcel examination centre. Families who wish to sit Cambridge* papers should speak to a consultant about how our teaching supports that and how examination entry can be arranged.

What ages and subjects do you teach?

Most students join for International GCSEs from around age 14, then continue to Advanced Levels for university entry at 16 to 18. Subjects span mathematics, the sciences, English, languages, humanities and more. A consultant can confirm the subject list for your child's level on a short call.
