An international online school for families in Kuwait
Oxford Online School provides live, structured British education for students aged 8 to 18 based in Kuwait. With small classes, specialist teachers and a clear timetable, students get the routine and support of a real school - without the commute.
Real school structure, delivered entirely online
We are a fully online British school based in Oxford. Our students follow a timetabled day of live lessons with qualified teachers, progressing through the British curriculum from primary level right through to A Levels. Many of our families are based in Kuwait and the wider Gulf region, and our lessons are designed to work across time zones without disrupting the school day structure.
What sets our online school apart
Live lessons with a structured timetable
Students join scheduled live lessons during the UK school week, taught by subject specialists. The timetable mirrors a traditional school day, giving students a consistent routine and the chance to progress alongside their classmates. Students take part in lessons directly, asking questions and receiving guidance from their teachers. From Year 10 onwards, lesson recordings are also available to support revision.
Lesson times and the Kuwait school day
Oxford Online School operates on UK time. Kuwait is three hours ahead (GMT+3), so lessons typically run from late morning into the early evening local time. This schedule works well for many families in the Gulf region. A full time zone guide is available so you can see exactly how the timetable maps to Kuwait Standard Time.
Built for expat and international families
Oxford Online School is used by families in Kuwait who need a structured British education that travels with them. British expatriate families choosing to continue a UK curriculum, international families preparing for GCSE, A Level or UK university entry, and families whose work or lifestyle means regular moves between countries all find the model works well for them. If this sounds like your situation, the admissions team can help you find out more.
Support for every key stage
Oxford Online School offers structured full-time study from Year 4 to Year 13. Each stage is taught by subject specialists with a timetable that gives students consistency and clear academic progression.
Before you enrol from Kuwait
Families in Kuwait can enrol their child at Oxford Online School as a private online education provider. Kuwait's Ministry of Education oversees compulsory schooling, and families should confirm whether their child's existing registration requirements are met before transitioning fully to online study. Our admissions team is familiar with questions from families in the Gulf region and is happy to discuss your circumstances.
