Famous homeschoolers is a topic close to our heart. Nelson Mandela was one of our past students who studied for his Law degree whilst in Robben Island Jail. This got us thinking about how many other famous homeschoolers there might be. The answer is a lot and there are many famous homeschoolers from across the world who have achieved great things.
From performers, authors and artists to sportspeople, entrepreneurs and inventors. The flexibility of homeschooling suits many different lifestyles while also providing a vital foundation for learning. Even Queen Elizabeth II and her sister Princess Margaret were home educated. We’ve helped over 750,000 students achieve their qualifications with many of them excelling in their chosen subjects. And what bigger inspiration do you need than our former student Nelson Mandela, who studied through us for his London University Law degree while he was in Robben Island Jail! A true inspiration to all home learners everywhere!
