Why children who have been bullied may need homeschooling

Every child deserves a safe and supportive learning environment to thrive academically and emotionally. Unfortunately, some students may face the distressing experience of bullying in traditional school settings. If your child has experienced bullying, homeschooling could be the perfect solution. Some common examples children who experience bullying may face are:

  • Peer pressure
  • Physical bullying
  • Verbal bullying
  • Emotional abuse
  • Exclusion/isolation
  • Cyber bullying

Why homeschooling could be the answer

Homeschooling allows your child to escape the traditional school classroom dynamic and learn in an environment that feels more comfortable for them. An environment they feel safe and secure in will help to promote their learning, as well as their mental wellbeing.

One of the greatest advantages of homeschooling is the ability to work at your own pace. Unlike traditional schooling, homeschooling allows students to set their own learning pace. This fosters a positive learning experience and encourages students to regain their passion for education. Homeschooling allows students to build meaningful friendships with like-minded individuals, in a safe and supportive environment, without the fear of bullying, to create a sense of belonging. Homeschooling can also help to strengthen family bonds by increasing parental involvement in your child’s education. Parents can actively engage in their child’s education and provide additional support and guidance in navigating challenges related to bullying.

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.
