Online School & Homeschool in Wrexham

Online school and homeschooling in Wrexham

For Wrexham, Flintshire and North Wales families who home educate or want an international qualification — live online Cambridge IGCSE and A-Level, IB and American curriculum on UK time.

Smartious teaches Wrexham and North Wales families live online in small classes of 4-6 students. Home education is lawful in Wales under section 7 of the Education Act 1996. Families in Wrexham, Flintshire, Denbighshire, Conwy and Gwynedd use Smartious as a full-time programme or for one-to-one tuition, and families near Chester often move across the border. Cambridge IGCSE and A-Level give one route on both sides. We also teach the IB, the American curriculum with AP and the Ontario OSSD through our Ontario partner school.

Challenges Wrexham families face

Home education in Wales: lawful under section 7 of the Education Act 1996. Deregister from a mainstream school in writing; a special school place arranged by the council needs its consent. Wrexham Council may make enquiries under the Welsh Government's statutory guidance.
Rural North Wales: in Gwynedd, Conwy and Denbighshire specialist subjects can be hard to find locally. Live online classes bring them to the home.
Exam centres: private candidates need a centre that accepts them. Some North Wales independent schools take external candidates for GCSE, IGCSE and A-Level; Chester is close for English centres. We help plan entries early.
Time zone: GMT (UTC+0), BST (UTC+1) in summer.

Wrexham became a city in 2022 and is the largest town in North Wales, close to Chester and the English border. North Wales combines cross-border families with a wide rural area where specialist subjects are hard to find — both reasons families look for live online teaching.
