About Wendover Online School
About Us
Since being founded in 2016, Wendover Online School has developed into a unique and enriching environment. At the heart of our school is a community of expert teachers, keen to inspire students to take a real interest in their education.
We changed our name to Wendover Online School in April 2024 to embrace a new chapter. Wendover has been the family home of our founder, Sarah, for several generations. It’s an expansive, 200-year-old former vicarage in the heart of the British countryside.
We started our online teaching and learning with just a few key staff and a small number of pupils. We knew that more personalised learning was fundamental to understanding, and that building a child’s confidence would reap rewards throughout their lives.
Now, we have around 100 pupils, and a strong team of staff relishing the chance to work online and deliver more personalised lessons to pupils from Primary to A-Level, and in a wide range of subjects.
It’s a community where you can always ask questions; where we are interested in pupils as real people, not just as statistics. An environment busy with students from the UK and abroad, each participating in bespoke or shared lessons at times that fit their family life.
Our online school cares for the whole child, not just their academic potential. We provide individualised teaching, and our teachers are passionate, knowledgeable and engaging. In this supportive environment, students enjoy the experience of learning and learn well.
Our small class sizes, with one-to-one lessons or up to six pupils sharing a lesson, work perfectly for our pupils and their families. Everyone has the chance to speak, the teacher can ensure each pupil is engaged and learning, and we really get to know each other. We encourage our students to be curious. Parents tell us they find our online school “empathetic” and “caring”, whilst they value the “aspirations” and “achievement” that come with this whole-child approach.
