The programme
What is FutureSchool?
FutureSchool is a self-paced Maths and English learning platform. Your child takes a free assessment, gets a personalised study plan, then works through video lessons, worksheets and tests at their own pace.
What does each lesson include?
Each lesson is the same shape: a short video, a worksheet, then a test. Wrong answers point back to the exact step in the video. Your child can pause, rewind and rewatch as often as they need.
How does the personalised study plan work?
Your child starts with an ability assessment for their year level. The result shows which topics are secure and which need work. FutureSchool then builds a study plan that skips what your child already knows and lists the lessons that need attention, in the right order. The plan updates as they complete lessons.
What happens after the assessment?
You get a summary of strengths and gaps for that subject. Your child’s study plan is built from it. They start on the first recommended lesson: a short video, then a worksheet, then a test. Results appear in your parent reports straight away.
Is it games or proper teaching?
Proper teaching. FutureSchool was designed by teachers for classroom use, so lessons focus on the core concepts of Maths and English. Concepts are taught, practised and tested. You will not see a talking butterfly explaining geometry.
Which devices work?
Any laptop or desktop with a modern browser, on Windows or Mac. Tablets work in a browser. Phones are deliberately not supported, because Maths and English coursework is hard to read on a small screen.
Family and homeschooling
Can I use FutureSchool for homeschooling?
Many homeschooling families do. It gives you curriculum-aligned lessons, tests and reporting for Maths and English. We recommend using it alongside other resources rather than as the only form of teaching.
Billing, cancellation and the guarantee
Is there a free trial?
No, and that is deliberate. The ability assessment is free and needs no card, so you see exactly where your child stands before you spend anything. When you do subscribe, every plan carries a 30-day money-back guarantee, so your first payment is refundable in full for a month.
Can I cancel?
Monthly plans have no fixed term. Cancel any time and you will not be charged again. Annual plans are paid up front for 12 months and stop renewing when you ask us to close the account. Send cancellation requests through the contact form.
How does the 30-day money-back guarantee work?
Use FutureSchool for up to 30 days from sign-up. If it is not right for your family, ask for a refund through the contact form and we refund your first payment. No questions, no arguments, no delays.
Will my subscription renew automatically?
Yes. The monthly plan renews each month and the up-front plan renews each year, so access continues without interruption. You can stop renewal at any time.
Curriculum and ages
Does it follow the US curriculum?
Yes. The Maths and English programmes are aligned to the Common Core State Standards, and state-specific curricula are included for states that do not follow Common Core. More than 200 curricula are built in, so the programme also aligns with England, Australia, Canada, IB and Cambridge International pathways.
What ages does it cover?
Kindergarten (Reception) through Year 12, roughly ages 5 to 18. Your child starts at the level the assessment shows, not the year they are in at school, so a child who is behind or ahead is placed correctly.
Still deciding? The assessment costs nothing
No card, no plan, about 20 minutes. You get your child’s real level, and you choose from there.
