Please can anyone offer any advice.
My ds year 9 is happy at school and is doing well but has a commitment that means he is missing too much school very regularly. Think actor/musician/sportsman.
I have been advised my his agent that he may need to withdraw from school and access his learning online.
He would need something where he can access lessons when he is free rather than set online lesson times.
I have absolutely no clue what I'm supposed to be looking for. I'd be grateful for any recommendations or advice.
Thank you.

Minerva are fantastic - you can attend lessons live if you are free, but if not, they are all recorded and you can watch whenever. There are social groups if kids want them, and chances to meet up in real life too, but no pressure. Work between lessons all done on Canvas online, which is easy to do. You usually get a couple of weeks work and lessons updated at a time, so you can be flexible as to when you do things. You also get a weekly 1-1 mentor meeting which can be arranged to suit you. They have a lot of kids who are actors/sportspeople etc too
