Our Academic Accelerator Programme

Our Academic Accelerator programme is a three-subject programme designed for secondary students aged 11-16. This flexible, fully bespoke programme allows students to study up to three additional subjects alongside their current school subjects without disrupting their existing schedule. This way, students can expand their knowledge and gain a competitive edge for future academic and career success.

Classes above your child’s age group

Students can join us up to two years above their chronological age. This allows them to learn at a pace that suits their abilities, challenge themselves, and progress faster than they would in traditional school environments.

Complete flexibility to suit your schedule

Students can join us and start learning in just a matter of days. They can access our live, timetabled online lessons that are scheduled to suit three time zones, or learn via class recordings instead. Our lesson recordings and resources are available 24/7 to offer maximum flexibility.

Globally recognised qualifications

Our students study internationally recognised qualifications, such as IGCSEs and A Levels, which are accepted by universities worldwide. They can get the credentials needed to access higher education opportunities at leading institutions across the globe.

Who this programme is for

With lessons across three time zones and a wide selection of subjects on offer, our Academic Accelerator programme suits various needs.

International students

This programme allows students in regions across the globe, from Germany to France, the Middle East and China, to gain British qualifications while continuing their local curriculum. In countries where opting out of national education systems is challenging, this programme is a supplement to local schooling and provides easy access to the British curriculum.

Homeschooling families

Homeschooling parents who may not feel equipped to teach certain subjects can use this programme to complement their child’s education. With expert-led live, interactive lessons, it takes the pressure off parents while still allowing them to maintain autonomy over their child’s learning journey.

High-achievers

Students with ambitious academic or career goals can use this programme to strengthen their university applications, particularly for top-tier institutions. Whether they need specific qualifications to meet entry requirements or simply want to enhance their academic profile, our programme provides the extra edge they need.

Reach your full academic potential

At King’s InterHigh, we believe nothing should stop your child from reaching their full potential. Our Academic Accelerator programme is designed to help them challenge themselves and achieve their ambitious academic goals.

Customisable subject selection

We offer a wide range of subjects so your child’s learning can be tailored to their interests and aspirations. Your child can study subjects to meet university entry requirements or broaden their knowledge beyond their national curriculum.

Advanced curriculum

Our rigorous British curriculum challenges students, encouraging analytical thinking, problem-solving, and independent learning. This equips them with the necessary skills for higher education and future success.

How we teach

Flexible classes

Our live, interactive classes are held across three different time zones, allowing students worldwide to keep up with their daytime commitments. For added flexibility, students can also access 24/7 lesson recordings.

Expert teachers

Our courses are delivered by experienced educators who are experts in their respective fields. These teachers encourage critical thinking and intellectual curiosity, encouraging students to explore subjects in greater depth.

Global community

Our vibrant community spans 133 countries, so students can engage with peers from varied backgrounds, broaden their global outlook and strengthen social skills, preparing them for future professional and personal success.

Our community

Progress tracking and feedback

Students take regular assessments and feedback sessions for each subject so they can stay on track and continually progress toward their academic goals. Teachers use these assessments to tailor their teaching to support unique needs.

VAT charges explained

The UK Government has implemented a policy to charge VAT on independent schools taking effect from the 1st of January 2025. This VAT charge is payable by families who are based in, or access, King’s InterHigh from the UK. This change does not impact families who are based outside the UK and access King’s InterHigh from another country.

We understand the significant financial commitment you make in choosing our online school as well as how important it is to be able to financially plan. After careful review of the details of the legislation, we will support parents by absorbing costs ourselves, so that a slower phasing in of this unwelcome change reduces its financial impact on families.

For the upcoming 2024-2025 academic year (starting September 2024), Inspired Education Group will absorb much of the 20% VAT charge. For the Spring and Summer terms when the 20% VAT will now apply, we will only pass on 8.5% to families, taking up the difference ourselves.

To further support families with the financial implications of this change in government policy, for the 2025-2026 academic year (starting in September 2025) there will be no inflationary tuition fee increases, and that Inspired Education Group will continue to absorb costs to limit the increase to 8.5% for that academic year. Overall, this will mean we have phased in 17% of the 20% VAT cost over two years to avoid sudden increases for families and have not increased tuition fees.

King’s InterHigh is committed to offering competitive fees and accessible, high-quality independent education, along with the unique benefits of online learning. We are pleased that through careful cost control and the benefits of being part of Inspired, the leading global group of premium schools, we can significantly reduce the financial effect on families due to this change in UK VAT policy.
