Welcome

Launched in September 1999, NorthStarUK was the first fully online learning community providing secondary education in the UK. Working with families who home educate their children and small schools around the world, we are changing the way that formal learning takes place.

Elective home education is a right that families in the UK have enjoyed for many years. NorthStarUK exists to support families who want to home educate their children through the years of secondary education.

Providing online secondary education in key subjects, NSUK helps home educating parents to provide formal education, otherwise than at school. Whether you are looking for home 'school' or informal home-based learning NSUK is here to help parents make informed choices about the education of their children.

Home education is a thrilling adventure, whether you live in Africa or the UK. It provides children with an opportunity to learn at a pace and in a manner that suits their individual learning styles.

When you invite NorthStarUK to be involved in this adventure, we agree to provide high quality online secondary education, so that parents (and teachers in small schools) don't need to worry about specialist knowledge and skills in 'difficult' subjects.

Around the world, NSUK students study hard whether they are in Years 7-9 or they are studying for IGCSE and A level exams. If you chose to study  IGCSE or A levels courses with NorthStarUK, you will have the assurance of knowing that our exam results are consistently excellent.
