Season 2, Episode 4 - A Day in the Life of a UKVS Student - Raif's Journey into Secondary School
During this episode, you'll meet Raif, who's a student at UK Virtual School.
During this chat with Syd, you'll hear about his time in state schools and some of his issues with the traditional model of schooling.
Here are just some of the reasons Raif loves online schooling:
➡ UKVS really DOES listen to their students, whereas he felt largely ignored at his old traditional school
➡ UKVS has helped Raif to become more focused on his work, and comfortable enough to participate and ask some brilliant questions.
➡ The UKVS day is planned carefully - with breaks to keep the students learning effectively.
