“ We tried unschooling, worldschooling, and wildschooling. We then found online schooling at King’s InterHigh, which ticked a lot of the boxes: flexibility, live classes, catering to different global time zones, and a solid British curriculum.” JULES SCHOLEY SMITH, PARENT
What’s great about worldschooling is that parents don’t
need to abandon a structured curriculum, forgo academic rigour, or even take on the role of teacher themselves. In the age of online education, busy expat parents can now combine the competitive edge of worldschooling with a world-class core education that goes wherever they go.
HOW ONLINE EDUCATION TAKES SCHOOL ANYWHERE Today, leading online schools like King’s InterHigh have revolutionised what’s possible for global families. Alongside helping families take worldschooling from dream to reality, online study also offers valuable strengths for students and parents alike.
With online learning, children get the benefits of
a world-respected curriculum, expert-led instruction, and peer interaction, all without being tied to a single location. At King’s InterHigh, students join live, interactive lessons with highly experienced teachers each school day, collaborating with their classmates on a flexible schedule. Families get a choice of three time zones (UK, Middle East, and Southeast Asia) to suit their location, joining over 12,500 happy King’s InterHigh alumni, many of whom have progressed to top universities like Cambridge and Yale. It’s a level of flexibility that transforms life for families
on the move. Instead of dreading a work reassignment to a city with poor school options, parents can embrace the opportunity to explore a new country while their children continue with a familiar curriculum, teachers, and friends. At the same time, learning within King’s InterHigh’s global community (which is home to students from over 120 countries) reinforces all the benefits of a worldschooling approach.
“A FANTASTIC WAY OF LEARNING” “Before we started travelling, our daughter was in a traditional bricks-and-mortar school, so we were quite accustomed to the ‘normal’ way of schooling,” says Jules Scholey Smith, one of the globally mobile mums who’s found the perfect balance with online learning. Currently based in Vietnam, she’s been travelling
the world with her children, Jacob and Erihn, since 2019. “We tried unschooling, worldschooling, and wildschooling,” Jules recalls. “We then found online schooling at King’s InterHigh, which ticked a lot of the boxes: flexibility, live classes, catering to different global time zones, and a solid British curriculum.” Now, her children join online lessons during the
afternoons, leaving the mornings free for enriching and educational activities. “One day might include a creative media lesson that has us hunting for random art supplies at the local market, a Spanish class, and then a STEM
