Admissions & Fees
Joining Metaverse School & College.
A straightforward, personal process, so we can be sure the school is genuinely the right fit before a student joins.
How to apply
A screen doesn’t remove a school’s responsibility to help students grow as people, not just as exam candidates. This runs through form time, assemblies, enrichment activities and how staff and students are expected to treat one another every day.

Frequently asked questions
What ages and year groups do you teach?
We teach Years 7 (12 years of age) to 13 (18 years of age) — Pre-International leading to International GCSE across Years 10 and 11, followed by a choice of International A-Level or the IB Diploma Programme across Years 12 and 13.
How big are the classes?
We keep class sizes deliberately small, so that every lesson allows for genuine discussion, questioning and individual feedback from the teacher.
Which exam boards do you use?
We teach to internationally recognised UK Examination Board specifications for IGCSE and International A-Level, and are developing our IB Diploma Programme in line with IBO requirements. Specific exam board details for each subject are confirmed with families at enrolment.
How do students sit their exams?
Students sit examinations through an approved examination centre, with invigilation arranged remotely or in person depending on the subject, the awarding body’s requirements and the student’s location. More information will be provided six months’ prior to the examination.
What technology do we need at home?
A reliable internet connection, a computer with a camera and microphone, and a quiet space with at least 2 meters of space to attend live lessons. We provide guidance on setting up a suitable home study environment during induction.
How do you keep students safe online?
All lessons run through a monitored platform, staff are safer-recruitment checked with enhanced police checks (enhanced DBS in the UK), and we follow a safeguarding and online-safety approach designed around the DfE’s online education standards. See our Safeguarding & Policies page for full detail.
