Harrow School Online has opened its digital gates to international students from all over the world to apply for a place to start their advanced level education in September 2020.
The Online school will teach the British curriculum and international A-Levels to Nigerian students via a digital platform.
Harrow School Online is a co-educational school for ambitious students aged 16 and over, who have strong English skills and are looking for a prestigious, high-quality British education that suits their lifestyle.
Students will be given the opportunity to study virtually for the Pearson Edexcel international A-Level examinations. Focusing initially on STEM subjects (Chemistry, Physics, Mathematics, Further Mathematics) and Economics, the school will help prepare students for higher education and employment opportunities of the future.
Heather Rhodes, Harrow School Online’s Principal, said: “We live in a rapidly changing world, and education must adapt to the new challenges this presents, and reflect young people’s lifestyles and aspirations. It’s a privilege to be at the forefront of this new chapter of education. We are pleased to be partnering with Pearson using their expertise in this area to make it a reality.”
The head of Pearson Schools in the UK, Sharon Hague explained that Pearson is investing in digital innovation, noting that its collaboration with Harrow School builds on the existing leadership in online schooling in the US and worldwide. “Through this innovation we are helping export high quality, British curriculum internationally, using technology to increase access to quality education for international learners,” she said.
