Coaching Tutorials
When we envisioned UK Virtual school, we envisioned a holistic approach to education where well-being was just as important. At UK Virtual School, your child will have an assigned tutor who will meet them in small groups to discuss essential key life skills and values. The students will advance through modules of 10 key topics across the school year.
Education is not just about academic learning but also an opportunity for children to learn lifelong skills, gain a better insight into who they are as a person and to have plans, goals and aims to motivate growth. We believe these skills are important for all and therefore, the videos and worksheets are available freely for everyone to utilise. Students who are enrolled with us, will receive monthly small group coaching sessions on the 4th Monday of each month. Details of this is added to the learning portal
