A few kind words from the parents and students we work with.
It shouldn't have to be all or nothing
The full online schools mostly ask for everything at once — a whole timetable, signed up by the term or the year, paid up front. But your child might only need a couple of subjects taught well. Committing to (and paying for) an entire school you're not sure will suit them is a big bet to place while they're already struggling. There should be a smaller, calmer first step — and there is.
Just the subjects you need
One or several, KS1 to A-level. Not a bundled timetable.
A teacher you choose and keep
Qualified, DBS-checked, interviewed by us; live 1:1 or small group, never a cameras-off crowd.
Pay per session, no contract
Charged only after each lesson; cancel upcoming sessions anytime.
Try before you commit
A free intro call with any tutor, and with many a free first lesson.
Choose what you need
Build the support that fits your child — one subject or several, catch-up or exam years, on your terms.
Single subjects
Cover the ones you can’t, or don’t want to, teach yourself.
Catch-up & confidence
Fill gaps and rebuild momentum, at your child’s pace.
GCSE, IGCSE & A-level
Exam-year teaching — you arrange the exam centre, we get them ready.
1:1 or small group
A named teacher, live — choose the setting that suits your child.
You're carrying a lot. Let us carry the teaching.
You didn't choose for school to stop working, and now their education sits with you — often alongside a job. You don't have to become a teacher in five subjects overnight, or hand your child to a hundred-seat online class and hope someone notices them. Tell us the subjects they need and roughly where they're up to, and we'll match you with a vetted teacher who sees your child every lesson — so you can stop juggling all of it on your own.

Charlie Soyka
I am an experienced headteacher who has led three successful schools in a number of different settings across Hertfordshire and London over the past twelve years. My leadership and teaching style is one of collaboration, challenge and support which has brought results in every school that I have led and recognised at local and national level. I place great importance on developing effective systems that build trust, openness and opportunity. I lead with integrity and humility which is balanced with ambition and success. I am also a keen and distant student of the works of CG Jung and enjoy the pursuit of reading widely and extensively for both professional and personal pleasure. As a keen sportsman I enjoy regular cycling, walking and cold-water swimming. These pursuits help me to remain in a state of fitness that translates into my professional life.

Dr Jenna Hussain
I am a qualified GP, educator, and mentor with a strong passion for supporting students through medical school preparation and the wider university application process. Having completed my GP training, I bring a broad range of clinical experience across general practice, oncology, palliative care, and hospital medicine. This enables me to offer realistic, up-to-date insight into both medical training and the realities of a career in healthcare. My expertise in medical school preparation is grounded in both personal experience and academic contribution. I am a co-author of “The Unofficial Guide to the Medical School Interview”, and have previously contributed to resources focused on gaining entry to medical school. Through this, I have developed a detailed understanding of the application process, including personal statements, entrance exams, and interview techniques. Alongside this, I have hands-on experience tutoring GCSE and A-level students and supporting university applicants, helping them successfully secure offers. I have a longstanding commitment to widening participation and mentorship. I have volunteered in outreach programmes working with schools and colleges to support students from diverse backgrounds in accessing medical careers. During the COVID-19 pandemic, I co-developed national educational initiatives to support early-graduating medical students, demonstrating my ability to lead, innovate, and deliver impactful teaching. I hold a Postgraduate Certificate in Clinical Practice, Leadership, Management and Medical Education (Distinction), and I am a Fellow of both the Institute of Leadership and Management and the Healthcare Leadership Academy. I have also led accredited leadership programmes for healthcare trainees and continue to contribute to medical education through conference leadership, NHS e-learning development, and invited teaching roles. My approach to mentorship is holistic. I focus not only on academic success, but also on building confidence, resilience, and clarity of direction. Having navigated a highly competitive academic pathway myself and received national recognition, including RCGP Junior Doctor of the Year, I understand what it takes to stand out. I am passionate about helping students achieve their goals and feel confident in their journey. I am well equipped to guide aspiring medical students and university applicants, supporting them to succeed and truly distinguish themselves.

Emily Henders
I have been teaching science for over 10 years to secondary school children. I specialise in biology and chemistry upto GCSE, and biology a level
Emily Morris
I am passionate about education and dedicated to helping students grow into confident, reflective, and independent learners. I qualified as a Secondary School English Teacher in 2021 through Teach First. My primary expertise lies in Secondary English Language and Literature. I believe students thrive when they are encouraged to think creatively and reflectively, making meaningful connections between their studies and the real world. This approach often encourages students to become independent and curious learners. Within my tutoring sessions, every lesson is carefully planned with personalised learning but ensuring students enjoy the process and develop a genuine love of learning. In my spare time, I enjoy Yoga, Pilates and going to the theatre.
How it works
Tell us what your child needs
The subjects, and roughly where they’re up to. Setting up an account is free.
Meet a teacher, free
A free intro call to see if they fit — and with many tutors, a free first lesson — before you pay anything.
Book the lessons you want, week to week
Regular slots around your life, paid per session. Add or drop subjects as your child changes — no contract.
Between a full online school and ad-hoc tutoring
There are really three ways to get a home-educated child taught online — and most families land somewhere they didn't quite mean to.
A full online school gives you structure, but asks you to commit to a whole timetable, by the term or the year. That's more than many children need, and a big commitment to make while things still feel uncertain. One-off tutoring is flexible, but can feel ad-hoc — no rhythm to the week, and no one really steering.
CloudClasses sits on purpose in between. You get the steadiness of regular, recurring lessons with a teacher who knows your child — but only for the subjects you choose, booked week to week, paid per session, and changed or stopped whenever you need. The shape of a school week, without signing up for a whole school.
And if you'd like more than a few separate lessons, just ask — we'll help you map out a whole term across the subjects your child needs, so it hangs together like a proper plan rather than a scatter of bookings. You stay free to change it as you go.
Online home education — the teaching you need, without the whole school
Home education looks different in every family. Some parents teach most subjects themselves and just want help with the harder ones; some are topping up a mainstream timetable; and many have come to home education because school stopped working for their child. What they share is a simple need — good teaching for the subjects where they'd like some help — without having to hand over their child's whole week, or budget, to a full-time online school.
That's the gap CloudClasses is built for. Instead of a bundled online-school timetable signed up by the term or year, you choose the subjects your child needs — one, or several — and book live online lessons with a qualified, DBS-checked UK teacher. Lessons are 1:1 or small group, so your child is seen every session rather than lost in a large, cameras-off class. You pay per session, with no subscription and no contract, and you can add or drop subjects, or stop altogether, whenever your child's needs change.
We cover around two dozen subjects from KS1 to A-level, including GCSE and IGCSE. We're the teaching layer, not an exam centre, so exams are sat at a registered centre you arrange separately — it's worth sorting that early and checking it takes your exam board. Most families build a steady weekly rhythm, booking the same slots each week so home education has some structure to it, with all their sessions visible on one board — and if you'd like it to hang together as a proper term plan, just ask and we'll help you map one out.
Online learning isn't a hands-off fix — it works best when a child is reasonably willing and a parent is nearby, especially at the start. And friendships still come from the world around your child, through local home-ed groups and clubs, not from us. But for the part we do — real teaching, from a teacher you choose and keep — you can meet them on a free intro call, and with many tutors a free first lesson, before you commit to anything at all.
