Large class sizes, limited attention, and lack of individual support mean many students don't reach their full potential. Only a small percentage of state school students reach top UK universities.
Smaller classes mean more personalised support and stronger academic outcomes.
£20,000–£40,000+ per year is simply not realistic for most families. And costs continue to rise every year.
A high-quality British education should not require financial sacrifice.

Joining ibos for the first year has been a positive experience for me, marking my second stint with online schooling post-COVID. I'm glad to be part of this school, mainly because it feels comfortable rather quickly. Many of the teachers and students share my cultural background, making it all feel quite familiar. Despite having some social anxiety, I found great support in ibos, particularly from Dr. Mohammadi, which has really helped me manage it better. Making new friends online has been a pleasant surprise, even if it's just through a screen. The lessons are engaging, though they come with a challenging pace, which is understandable since I'm in year 12. Overall, I truly appreciate the warm and supportive environment created by the wonderful teachers, who make learning enjoyable while also caring for us. I'm thrilled to be a part of this school.

It has now been three years since my daughter began studying at iBOS, and choosing this school has truly been one of the best decisions we've made for her education. At first, we were unsure about stepping into the world of online learning simply because it was unfamiliar to us. But from her very first day, it became clear that iBOS maintains exceptionally high standards especially when it comes to selecting outstanding teachers and creating a supportive learning environment thanks to Dr.Mohammadi. The staff have been consistently attentive, professional, and genuinely invested in my daughter's progress. We feel deeply connected to the school community and always well informed about how our daughter is doing. We've seen firsthand how dedicated the team is to supporting her in every possible way. Her learning and overall growth have flourished thanks to the care and commitment of the entire iBOS team.

We joined iBOS in Year 6, and the progress has been outstanding. The lessons are engaging, structured, and follow the Cambridge curriculum perfectly. Teachers give personalised feedback and help children develop both academically and emotionally. As a parent living in Dubai, I really appreciate the local support and communication. It's a world-class British online school.
