The House Masters and coaches look after the pupil’s pastoral care, monitoring everything from personal wellbeing to their futu...
Less expensive than independent day school fees, full time enrolment is £5,250 per term. For one individual A level it’s £1575 per subject per term, or to study maths with further maths it’s £2100 per term. The fee for the Enrichment Programme is £650 per term. Compared to Harrow School fees (£14200 per term) this virtual school is an absolute stea...
I talked to students in the UK, Sri Lanka and Romania – a pretty eclectic mix! – and they all said the same thing. They love Harrow School Online, mostly because they felt they’re able to work to the best of their ability in a grown-up, collegiate environment (one to one tutorials, independent learning), but also because of the friendship groups. I...
