Online & In-Person Study Options

At London Maths & Science College, you can study the full British 16-19 curriculum in the way that works best for you—on campus in London, fully online from home, or through a flexible hybrid route. Whichever option you choose, you follow the same British A Level and BTEC programmes, taught from London by specialist teachers.

One British curriculum, three ways to study

All of our students, wherever they are in the world, follow the same British curriculum, with aligned schemes of work, assessments and expectations. The difference lies in how you access that learning: in person at our London campus, online from home, or a blend of the two.

For many families—especially internationally or in home-education contexts—this flexibility makes it possible to access a rigorous British sixth form education without relocating or compromising on other commitments.

Hybrid study: combining campus and online learning

Hybrid study is ideal for students who want some of the structure and social life of campus, but also need the flexibility of online learning—for example due to travel, health, family or training commitments.

Mostly on campus

With some lessons taken online

Mixed weeks

Where certain days are on site and others are online

Phased transitions

From fully online to more on-campus time over the course of a year

We agree each hybrid pattern individually, ensuring that it is academically coherent and sustainable while still fitting the realities of family life.

Which study option is right for you?

Different families choose different routes. We'll help you decide based on your goals, location and day-to-day reality.
