Overview
The flexibility of homeschooling
You know as well as we do that mainstream school doesn’t work for every child. With the old-fashioned, inflexible approach that every child should learn in the same way – complete with the same strict timetables, teacher-directed learning style, crowded classrooms and stretched resources – is it any wonder that some children struggle to reach their full potential in the traditional system?
We believe that every child deserves an education that’s as unique as they are. That’s why we’ve pioneered the most personalised, pupil-led educational approach of any school in the world – where your child can fit their learning around their life, not the other way around. Giving them the flexibility to learn in their own way, at their own pace, in their own time, and in their own place, wherever you are in the world.
Why you may need more flexibility for your child’s education
Many parents choose to homeschool thanks to the huge amount of flexibility it offers. There are several reasons why your child might need more flexibility than they can get in mainstream school:
- They may have extracurricular passions such as sport or the arts, and need to fit their learning around intense training and performing schedules to pursue their talents
- They might have health needs or a serious illness which makes going to mainstream school more difficult, as well as having to attend medical appointments
- They may have a neurodiverse condition or disability which means they struggle in a traditional classroom setting, and have more specific learning needs
- You could be a family that travels around a lot of has to relocate frequently for work, and need to create a more consistent learning experience for your child so they don’t fall behind
- They might be a gifted learner or need to study at a slower pace than their peers, rather than sticking to the same pace as the rest of the class

From a student's perspective it's the best choice!
I love working with Wolsey Hall, it is flexible, has good quality courses and many great tutors to help you. It allows flexibility while teaching you discipline as you keep up with your assignment schedule. I have grown so much in the one year I studied with Wolsey Hall and I feel I will be more than ready when I go to university. I recommend Wolsey to anyone looking to homeschool.

Homeschooling - a wonderful experience!
What an amazing 3 months of homeschooling... indeed we are fortunate to get to know about Wolsey Hall Oxford and I am proud to say it was one of the best decisions of our life to choose homeschooling for our daughter Abigail. Its just 3 months though, but the changes in our daughter's motivation, study pattern and confidence is noticeable. Tutors are providing feedback on time and motivating her to keep on doing hard work along with explaining details and minor mistakes in a very polite and encouraging way. SPM Melanie, Tutor Nicole, Tutor Faith, Tutor Hannah and other admin staff, we highly appreciate your support and guidance to make this journey of homeschooling possible and smooth for us. I would highly recommend Wolsey Hall Oxford to the families who are looking for a flexible, reliable and authentic homeschooling for their children where there children will grow and get knowledge on their own pace. Thank you Wolsey Hall Oxford for making our life easier and happier. Best Wishes Mrs. Peter

Best Choice For Homeschooling
Before we made the decision to take the homeshooling route, we talked to friends with homeschooled children and were largely unimpressed. We scoured the internet and came across Wolsey. It seemed to be the one that best matched our daughter's Cambridge system education at that point. We're glad we ultimately went the Wolsey route. The flexibility of homeschooling suited us perfectly, the course materials are of high quality, and SPM Kristina and the tutors are a delight to work with. Contrary to our initial reservations, homeschooling with Wolsey actually helped our daughter become a more independent, confident and disciplined student, things which will help her immensely when she goes to university. The ability to choose her own subjects allowed us to tailor her learning to her interests and give her a sense of what course she wants to take up. We also appreciate how Wolsey worked closely with our daughter to prepare for her IGCSE exams. The Wolsey experience has been a positive one not only for our child but for us as well. We'd recommend it highly to anyone looking for a homeschooling solution. We feel it's one of the best out there.

It works so well for our family. We are really enjoying the Wolsey Hall…
We are really enjoying the Wolsey Hall experience! It’s so professionally run and the course work is fun and engaging. The tutors are all superb and so encouraging. Our daughter is new to the UK curriculum having been home schooled in Portugal all of her life. (By law she had to follow the Portuguese curriculum) she’s absorbing the content so fast and still has lots of free time for her ballet and farm animals.

Homeschooling is great
I think we made a right decision to enrol our two daughters at Wolsey Hall. Initially we decided for homeschooling just because we could not find an affordable international school nearby but ended up it was the right decision. My kids were able to study at their own pace as it gave them enough time to understand the subjects thoroughly. Unlike in school systems where they will be rushed to complete the curriculum regardless if they have deep understanding of the subjects. The SPM Erica Abi Karam has been diligently monitoring their progress to ensure they are on right track. Thanks again for the tutors at Wolsey for their great support.

We enjoy Wolsey Hall
We enjoy Wolsey Hall. It’s wonderful that I don’t need to think through a curriculum or assignments. I’m confident that my child is learning what she needs to and I can see her progress. We’re also not tied to a desk, or country, so learning can take place anywhere.

A brilliant option for those wishing to homeschool!
The team at Wolsey Hall Oxford has been fantastic! My daughter completed both Year 1 and Year 2 with them, and throughout the experience, I found the lesson plans to be incredibly easy to follow and full of creative teaching ideas. This was especially helpful for someone like me, who isn’t a trained teacher. The team has been very supportive and accommodating, allowing flexibility for breaks and holidays, as well as when we wanted to progress through the curriculum more quickly. Feedback on assignments was always prompt, and Jane and Cathe were nothing short of marvellous! I highly recommend Wolsey Hall Oxford to anyone looking for a homeschool experience that sets their child up for success!

High quality home schooling
High quality home schooling. Wolsey Hall Oxford is a very good school. My daughter has improved tremendously through Wolsey Hall. The school has very good resources and the presented in a way that a student understands the concepts in an easier way. The tutors are so supportive, whenever my daughter is stuck we were able to send an email, to book a video call appointment with them. The Student Progress Manager was very supportive and always gave us updates. I strongly recommend Wolsey Hall Oxford to anyone who is considering homeschooling.

Great experience
My son only had 12 months instead of 2 academic years to prepare for his IGCSEs so we decided that attending an online school was going to be the best solution to help him achieve his plan of preparing for his IGCSEs in a short amount of time. Our experience with Wolsey Hall has been excellent and I would definitely recommend it to anyone wanting to study for their IGCSEs remotely. My son has just received his IGCSE results and has passed all his exams with outstanding results.

A really positive learning experience
A great home learning experience for my son who was returning to a more structured education program after independent learning for a few years due to poor health. The tutors and support staff were all great at providing structure with the flexibility that we required. They were supportive and provided great feedback so that my son could further develop his skills and felt good about the progress he was making.

Wolsey Hall Great Experience
Wolsey Hall has been incredible to my son’s homeschooling journey. The tutors are lovely, patient and kind who in my opinion go the extra mile to ensure feedback is positive and uplifting. My son is enjoying the flexibility Wolsey offers to his education, it is the best decision we have made by far.

Relaxed learning
My son, Bilal, who is turning 11 years old, started home schooling with Wolsey 3 years ago(Year3). We are so happy and content with the support we receive from the SPMs and the tutors. We have now been able to perfect a learning system for Bilal. He has been able to catch up his Math course which we started a year behind(Year 2) in comparison with the other subjects. Bilal's elder brother, Omar is also home schooling with Wolsey from year 8 and is now in his IGCSE years. Like Bilal, he started off German a year behind(Year 7) and has been able to catch up with the other subjects. We are looking forward to a bright and, more importantly, a relaxed learning experience with Wolsey.

Wolsey Hall was a school that really enabled I to build up my numerous skills that made I into a well independent thinker, and Wolsey Hall not only helped I study independently with no hassle unlike a school, but I really enjoyed the flexibility in doing things of my own in my spare time like prep and study plus outdoor activities like going for hour strolls to erase stress from my head.

Prompt and Flexible
Two of our teenage children studied with Wolsey Hall over the past 3 years, at different stages of the curriculum. We are very thankful that WH could work with our part-time arrangements and other specific needs. Their flexibility was much appreciated. Staff always responded quickly and completely to queries at all times. A very high standard of service to go along with a high standard of education. Thankyou!

A Very Positive View of Wolsey Hall Education
I am delighted to provide a positive report on my daughter's two-year study experience for the IGCSE at Wolsey Hall. Several key factors throughout her journey contributed to an enriching and successful educational experience. Flexibility of Programs: One of the standout features of Wolsey Hall's programs is their flexibility. This aspect was invaluable for my daughter, allowing her to tailor her study schedule to fit around her other commitments and interests. The ability to work at her own pace ensured that she could fully engage with the material without feeling rushed or overwhelmed. Quality of Written Feedback and Further Reading Suggestions: The quality of the staff at Wolsey Hall, particularly in providing written feedback and suggesting further reading, was exceptional. Her tutors' detailed and constructive feedback helped her improve her understanding of the subject matter and encouraged her to delve deeper into the topics covered. The additional reading suggestions were instrumental in broadening her knowledge and enhancing her learning experience. Professional Support from Student Progress Manager: The role of the Student Progress Manager cannot be overstated in its importance within the school. Their professional support and guidance were invaluable throughout my daughter's studies. From providing academic advice to offering pastoral care, the Student Progress Manager played a crucial role in ensuring that my daughter felt supported and motivated to succeed. Development of Valuable Life Skills: Wolsey Hall provided a solid academic foundation and helped my daughter develop essential life skills such as time management and online meeting planning. These skills have proven invaluable as she prepares for her next steps in education and beyond. Overall, my daughter's experience at Wolsey Hall has been overwhelmingly positive. The program's flexibility, the staff's quality in providing written feedback and suggesting further reading, and the professional support provided by the Student Progress Manager have all contributed to her academic success and personal growth. I cannot thank Wolsey Hall enough for their dedication to providing a top-quality education and supporting my daughter every step of the way.

Home Education with Wolsey Hall
Just to say thank you for a very positive experience at Wolsey Hall. My daughter became overwhelmed with stress and exam pressure at the beginning of year 11. As she had already been offered an apprenticeship in the equine industry, she wanted to leave education. Wolsey Hall gave her the opportunity to continue her studies, alongside her work experience. She enjoyed the flexible schedule, and she could do the course work and assignments whatever time of day suited her. It taught her time management and useful life skills such as attending and planning online meetings. The Student Progress Manager and subject tutors are very responsive and supportive.

Flexible Schedule and Helpful Teachers
I highly recommend Wolsey Hall to other parents who find themselves in non-traditional working situations or whose children require more flexibility in their education. I'm delighted to share that my daughter has seamlessly transitioned into a private school in Malaysia, following the IGCSE syllabus. She is thriving academically and socially. This smooth transition is a testament to the solid foundation she received during her homeschooling years.

Learning is Fun with Wolsey Hall Oxford
My daughter has been homeschooling for almost 3 years now with Wolsey Hall Oxford. Our SPM, Dani’s hands-on knowledge enables her to present factual information when we have queries. They have adequate materials and sites to help your child's learning. Tutors are very responsive. And, the best part is you have your own time to channel other activities without going behind child's education, You are on your own pace! I highly recommend Wolsey as your child's path to better education.

A very positive experience
A very positive experience for my daughter. The online IGCSE subjects that she completed were well organised, the assignments well spaced out, the feedback from tutors was helpful and encouraging. It offered flexibility with the validation of valuable qualifications at the end. Online schooling with Wolsey Hall was an excellent choice and worked very well for us.

Great experience
We are now for 6 months with Woolsey, and it.s been a great experience. The tutors are very helpfull and professional, the feedback they offer is great opportunity for my son to improve. The lessons are very dymanic, using manuals, short videos, exercises and other resources. The flexibility of the program is another great point for us. We can travel and also have our lessons done. If my son was ill with a flu and we are late with our assignments, our student manager just adviced how to deal with it the best way. All in one we are very happy. Many thanks Woolsey Hall.

The Right Choice
We are 3 months in and having looked at various options I am so happy we chose Wolsey Hall. It is really suiting our son (year 10) and the support we are receiving from Daisy our progress manager is fantastic and so appreciated. The flexibility is making all the difference to our son and he is really engaging with taking control of his own learning and timetable. Exactly what we hoped.

Wolsey Hall Oxford provides quality content and flexibility around learning
This is the second year that I am doing Wolsey Hall with my son (year 7 currently). The content is good quality and the lesson plans and structure are easy to follow. We like the flexibility around the lessons and assignments, it gives us freedom to do the lessons when it suits us, so its not bound to a certain day and time. The feedback from the tutors for assignments is very helpful as it helps us to see the progress and understanding of a subject very clearly.

Good learning resources and supportive staff
This is my son's third year at Wolsey Hall. Overall, there has been a very good and enjoyable experience. First of all, we appreciated that we could choose what courses to study, then there are plenty of learning resources and the tutors and the student managers have always been supportive and ready to help. There are two libraries my son has access to with lots of titles for various ages. We also appreciate the flexibility of the assignment schedule. For example, my son could submit assignments a few days earlier when he was ready, however in January he had a cold and a flu in February, and he was late with his assignments but nobody admonished him for that.

Excellent school
Excellent school I transferred my daughter to Wolsey Hall 2 years ago after she found online classes had improved her studies and helped deal with anxiety better. Following that, she started IGCSEs, and the amount of support and flexibility we have received have been tremendous. There have been many personal problems along the way which hindered her studies but her SPM has supported us throughout the way. She has learnt and grown so much. Great tutors and SPM. Definitely recommend! We are leaving now but it’s been a great journey.

Quality curriculum and excellent support
We started homeschooling my 9 year old daughter 3 years ago, the last year with Wolsey Hall. We chose homeschooling for flexibility and the freedom to choose subjects and curriculums. We enrolled in Wolsey Hall initially for French and computing for assistance with lesson content and Geography and Science for convenience. The Wolsey Hall lesson plans and method of teaching was a good fit. Canvas is user friendly and the on the go accessibility a great advantage. The lesson plans is easy to follow, of excellent quality and the programs structured but still flexible enough in terms of scheduling. I found the feedback so useful that we enrolled for English and Maths as well later in the year. Our student progress manager and tutors are supportive, accessible and professional. My daughter finds the lesson content interesting and the constructive and positive way in which assignment feedback is given, encouraging. We feel supported on our homeschooling journey and enjoy learning with Wolsey Hall.

We have been very much blessed by our experience with Wolsey Hall Oxford since our beginning right up until the time we had to part ways. We received a service and support which was very much of a professional and international standard. Our journey was made extra special by the dedicated and special care we received from Teacher Kate Speechley (Student Tutor) whom had provided us with excellent feedback and guidance related to areas of development for our daughter. The timely reminders and updates from Francesca Provensca (Student Progress Manager) has always ensured that we kept good progress and assisted us in being able to manage a flexible family life due to the season we were transitioning through as a family. The willingness to meet with us as a family periodically to discuss our daughter's academic needs and progress is very much appreciated and commendable. We will be forever grateful for the educational foundation which had been laid with the guidance and support of Wolsey Hall Oxford. May you as an organisation go from strength to strength. Much love and blessings. The Bosman family.

Wolsey Hall is a great curriculum to…
Wolsey Hall is a great curriculum to use. We have two boys of which one is severely dyslexic. The flexibility of the curriculum helps us with so many challenges we face with math, reading and writing. We are able to adapt our own time and schedule, allowing for necessary breaks and still get the work done. This has been an incredible help with each individuals specific needs. The staff has been incredibly helpful and responses always quick and efficient. The structure and online platform is easy to use. As a parent with no teaching background, the planned out structure is extremely easy to use. I found it so helpful. Using this curriculum has given us the freedom to achieve and adapt per individual needs. I would highly recommend Wolsey Hall to anyone.

The great home schooling experience
My 2 children are studying in the Wolsey Hall Oxford and just completed Grade 4 and Grade 6. I really like the school’s approach: first, based on the test results they recommended to join classes not according to the age, but according to my kids’ knowledge. I really like the school curriculum and opportunity to choose subjects, no pressure approach. Rebecca, our tutor, was always responsive, helpful with any technical issues we met, supportive. The school also has clubs, so my children are not only studying, but also developing their creative part.

Happy to recommend Wolsey Hall Oxford
We are in our fourth school year in three years at Wolsey Hall Oxford. The quality of the curriculum and most of the tutors has been fantastic, and we foresee continuing with WHO for as long as possible. We have appreciated being able to mix and match year level courses to meet our children's needs, as well as following our own life schedule and speeding up or slowing down as needed; WHO has given our family a lot of freedom to live life and still well educate our children. Furthermore, when a child is bored with lower than their level work, there is an option to bump the child up to the next year level after their current course is complete. This has worked very well for us, though in some subjects, such as English, where our child has the full capability of higher level work, the content is too mature for her age (we have an older child who has already completed those courses). Most of the tutors provide excellent feedback and they are mostly responsive within a reasonable timeframe. Deja at Learning Support is fantastic, and we cannot recommend her highly enough. Only two points to raise in what I wish WHO did better: firstly, a number of times over the past three years, we've received an email that our Student Progress Manager or subject tutor is changing effective immediately without any explanation. Just this week, we received one of those emails for one of our children's favourite tutors who has been with us since we began WHO in 2020. There has been no chance to say goodbye and no explanation, so that could certainly be improved. Secondly, because we are a multinational family, A levels do not make sense for us, as our children are likely to attend university outside of the UK. I truly wish WHO offered the International Baccalaureate Program to continue the well-rounded education they offer at lower years. As it is currently, after IGCSEs, we will have to transition elsewhere to do IB, which we really do not want to do, as our experience has been so good at WHO.

We have been with Wolsey for about 2 years now, and have been under the excellent guidance and support from all the SPMs and tutors. Wolsey has given us the confidence to continue with homeschooling, putting at ease our concerns and providing with all the curriculum we need and the guidance that's needed each year. The children have liked the course flexibility as well as the friendly support from their tutors. We are glad to have made the decision to enrol them with Wolsey.

Best homeschooling experience
We have been homeschooling now for one year and honestly Wolsey Hall has been the best decision. It's well structured and detailed. Very easy to use even for anyone new to homeschooling. It's also great that we have been able to move around alot and not have to worry that our child is missing out on school.

Wonderful learning experience with Wolsey Hall Oxford
This year would be my daughter's second year joining Wolsey Hall Oxford. We are happy because wr can learn on our own pace with guidance from our SPM and teachers. I have to admit that the course is tailored for independent learner. Its true according to the agreement on d beginning that at least one of the parent should be fully in charge to monitor day to day student's learning progress at home. SPM (student progress manager) would make schedule for student, it includes important dates such as when to submit assignment, when is d holiday (yes we can request our own holiday dates according to our family needs). After every assignment submission, the teachers would mark the assignment (u will get result max. in 4-5 days). Teachers would give schedule for video call. This opportunities could be use by parents n student to ask questions. Beside the book that included in the fees, the would be power point slides, videos included in the module, external link for writing n counting exercise. This is a big help for parents helping student to do the assignment. The best thing about self paced learning for my daughter that she can complete math n science -that she love most-earlier (in less than 6 months) and focusing on english subject that she find more challenging. No pressure because everything still in the time frame. We would love to continue our learning journey with Wolsey Hall Oxford in near future

We have used Wolsey Hall for over 5 years now. It’s been invaluable in our home education learning journey. 2 kids, multiple subjects each. The tutors have always been extremely helpful and accessible, giving plentiful and constructive feedback on assignments. We have also found them to be extremely flexible. Our kids are both DME and we have had no trouble with them accessing subjects for different year groups depending on their interest and ability, in some of the subjects the kids are 3 or 4 years ahead of their age, this hasn’t been a problem at all with WH. We have also had great SEN support helping with applying for access arrangements at our chosen exam centre and for typing and extra time requirements in essay based subjects.

I enrolled my child in Wolsey Hall…
I enrolled my child in Wolsey Hall almost three years ago, and I have been extremely impressed with the quality of education that she has received. The online platform is user-friendly and easy to navigate, making it simple for my child to access their lessons and assignments. The curriculum is comprehensive and challenging, providing my child with the knowledge and skills they need to succeed in their studies. One of the best things about Wolsey Hall is the flexibility it provides. My child is able to complete her schoolwork at her own pace and on her own schedule, allowing her to balance the studies with other activities and responsibilities. This has been especially helpful during the COVID-19 pandemic, when traditional in-person schools have been forced to close or limit their operations. Another advantage of Wolsey Hall is the support that is available to students and parents. The teachers are highly qualified and are always available to answer questions and provide guidance. In addition, the school offers a variety of resources and services, including tutoring, counseling, and extracurricular activities, to help students succeed. Overall, I am extremely satisfied with Wolsey Hall and would highly recommend it to other parents. It has provided my child with a high-quality education and has given us the flexibility and support we need during these challenging times.

Fantastic experience of homeschooling!
I love Wolsey Hall. I was nervous about starting down the homeschooling route but they have made it easy and enjoyable. It's all super organised, and I just love the flexibility and being able to tailor the course levels to your child's needs. The tutors that I've dealt with are all great and we have an excellent Student Progress Manager that overseas all our family needs. Their level of professionalism is second-to-none, and I would not hesitate to recommend them!

Home schooling in rural Uganda
We live in rural Uganda and started using Wolsey Hall Oxford when our eldest hit secondary school age in 2020. This was after consideration of other home school providers and educational options. We were conscious of the financial costs involved, but the reviews of Wolsey Hall were excellent and the system of study sounded very suitable so we decided to give it a go! And we don't regret it - the service has been excellent. Well worth the money! The work is well set out with good resources; the tutors are very helpful and quick to provide feedback; the Student Progress Managers are always willing to answer questions and guide. We started with 3 subjects for our eldest in 2020, our middle child commenced Upper primary for 1 subject in 2021, and for this academic year our eldest is studying 6 subjects, and our middle child 2! That says a lot in itself! One of the positive aspects of the work is being able to plan your own timetable. This allows us to take time away from compound hospital ministry at times that suit us/the hospital, rather than around schooling terms. And earlier this year we were able to spend 4 months back in Northern Ireland (our first time out of Uganda since before COVID), and take a complete break from school. Additionally, our eldest has started to study some iGCSE subjects, and he will be able to complete those in Uganda! This was another consideration to our decision. Overall, we have really enjoyed using Wolsey Hall Oxford. Our boys are progressing well. We are very happy to recommend it to others.

My son is 11 and this is his second year at Wolsey Hall. I can say that we've had a wonderful experience so far. The course materials are very useful and well structured, there are a lot of additional resources available, and their platform Canvas is easy to use even for people who are not technology experts. We really appreciate the flexibility we have, as he is studying English Year 5 and Maths Year 7. My son also finds the Library very useful and he enjoys the Student Forum. I have been most impressed by the staff's readiness to support and encourage us for more than a year. They have always answered promptly any questions I had and my son's progress has been closely followed and acknowledged. We are both very happy with our choice of school.

A Full Academic Year Experience
Our daughter joined Wolsey Hall Oxford (Year 3) last year. After completing a whole academic year, we are very satisfied with the overall experience and continuing with Wolsey Hall. The teachers and program manager are very helpful. The course content is of high quality and easy to follow. We also like the flexibility with respect to time management, subject selection, and overall progress. It also helps that they are a Cambridge-accredited school, which may allow us to continue with Wolsey Hall Oxford during the upper secondary and IGCSE years.

My daughter decided to move over to home schooling beginning of last year and has never looked back. She loves the flexibility and being able to study at her own pace. The material and assignments were clear and well explained and she rarely needed additional help. Most of the time she was also able to google something if she needed further info and found that easy and insightful. If necessary the tutors obviously also assisted and were always really great with providing detailed feedback on her assignments. Her marks improved by 10-15% since she started homeschooling. She also enjoyed that tutors were not subjective like lots of teachers at schools who have their favorite students and who can make or break a subject.

Amazing IGCSE Tutoring and Support
I was a student with Wolsey Hall Oxford for a year and a half whilst studying for my IGCSEs and I loved it. Their way of teaching and independent study gives you the choice of when to study and how to plan your studying around your life, activities or movement. Wolsey's teachers are all supportive, helpful, and give thorough feedback on your past mistakes, and really help you to achieve the grades that you can. I got 3 A*s 3 As 2 Bs and 1 C, a huge improvement from my past studies. I would recommend Wolsey Hall Oxford to everyone who's living abroad and needing British education or home schooling in the UK. You can't go wrong with Wolsey.

Wolsey Hall is an excellent online Homeschooling platform
We have been travelling quite a bit and thanks to Wolsey Hall it was possible to give our 4 children a high standard of education. The lesson plans, structure and required materials are easy to access and download. Our appointed Student Progress Manager was a great help in staying on track and the platform gave us a lot of flexibility as we can submit assignments at a later date. The tutors were easily available when needed and always responded quickly. They gave extra resources and information when needed. We can easily recommend Wolsey Hall as an online school platform anytime.

Excellent Learning Organisation
Wolsey Hall sets a high standard, is accomodating and flexible with an understanding that each child's learning needs and pace will be different. The programs are comprehensive and provide a great learning framework that can be navigated independently by students or with the guidance of parents. My daughter enrolled in 2017 (she was 13), she is a musician, school work fits around her music. She is always engaged in learning and over her period of enrolment, she has become more academic and developed a natural determination to obtain formal learning credentials. Wolsey has always been available to discuss progress and provide guidance around subject choices - they are very organized and always up to date with the curriculum for the IGCSE.

Wolsey HallOxford school - review
This is Tatiana, I am really happy with Wolsey HallOxford school. My daughter being a tennis player and required more practice and traveling, Wolsey school help her to be on her studies wherever she travels and as per her own schedule without missing her studies . Teachers are very supportive and helpful and fast in reply. As of now this is a great method of schooling, flexible and encouraging the kids to be motivated and to study by themselves.
