Interhigh/Online School Options

Just wondering if anyone's child does Interhigh or any other online school?

One of my two children has found through Covid that she actually prefers online learning and has asked me to consider full time online school for 5th and 6th year (she is currently in S3 so would need to continue until the end of S4 in regular school).

She is also not very interested in traditonal school subjects and likes the idea of doing Law, Sociology and Psychology for A Level via an online school, rather than five highers in the subjects she's currently doing.

Anyone doing similar who can give me any pros and cons?

Obviously the cons would be the social aspect but there are of course ways to ensure socialising still takes place. She is the type who likes to have one close friend, so no doubt her more introverted nature is a factor in her feeling like online school suits her personality better.

I also wondered how easy it is to take A-Levels via an exam centre in Scotland . . . I don't see much online.

@Navhos you're probably better posting on the Home Ed boards in Education.
Not sure how many home educators are active on here
