Realistic to homeschool through GCSE and A-level equivalent?

Yes. Many families use Cambridge International (IGCSE) designed for independent learners. Exams sat at registered centres. Our daughter passed seven.

Tutors for specialist subjects (chemistry, physics, higher maths). Budget for two or three from age 14 onwards.

Online providers like Pamoja Education offer structured GCSE-equivalent courses with teacher support. Genuinely rigorous.

Start narrowing subjects at 13 based on strengths and interests. Six well-chosen IGCSEs at 16 is stronger than ten mediocre ones.
