Project Description

About GCSE online / blended learning Courses

At Swansea College, our educational programmes are specifically designed for online/blended learning to ensure that pupils are fully engaged in their learning and that teachers are equipped to bring out the best in every pupil.
 
Pupils study from home or in-person, joining live taught lessons with expert teachers, in small class sizes. This is within the structure of a complete school programme that also includes the flexibility of self-paced learning, extracurricular activities, and a mentor to help keep pupils on track and thriving.
 
We look for pupils who will embrace and abide by Swansea College’s values of courage, honour,
humility and fellowship, and who have the potential to achieve a life of learning, leadership, service
and personal fulfilment.
 
Our dedicated and professional teachers offer students outstanding individual attention thanks to
small class sizes and ample teaching hours, which enable students to build confidence and fulfil their
potential.
