Oxford Online School fees and teaching

Among the cheaper full timetables, at £6,750 for a GCSE year on the annual contract. Ofsted's accreditation visit in February 2025 found it fell short of the standards, and its fees page and terms disagree on how you leave.

DfE accreditation

Oxford Online School is not accredited under the Department for Education's Online Education Accreditation Scheme. The scheme is voluntary, so that alone doesn't mean anything is wrong; see what accreditation checks. Ofsted visited in February 2025 and found it did not meet all the standards; the school says it will apply again.
