All of your lessons and assessments are available on CloudPort - our Moodle-based learning environment (Moodle VLEs are used by most colleges and universities in the UK).
Start with lesson 1 and work through the course in a linear pathway or choose to jump to the section that you need. Your learning is completely flexible and allows you to set your programme of learning around the skills you need.
Submit assessments as you work through the course. Get instant results and feedback on activities to track your progress. Use these assessments as learning launchpads, allowing you to focus your time on the topics you need to brush up on.
You will have access to all course materials, assessments and tutor support for 12 months from the day of enrolment. Extensions are available for students who wish to study over a longer period.
You are not alone! You will be assigned a personal 1:1 tutor on your day of enrolment. Your tutor will remain by your side, throughout your learning journey until you get qualified.
All tutors are qualified teachers and subject matter specialists who will ensure you have the correct guidance and support when you need it. As a CloudLearn student you will have unlimited access to tutor support.
CloudLearn GCSEs and A-Levels are structured around formative assessments allowing you to test your knowledge as you work towards qualification. Before taking your exam you will submit a mock exam to give you the practise you need before the big day.
When ready we arrange your exam. We have agreements with exam centres all over the UK. Our students also take advantage of preferential pricing due to the volume of students we channel to exam centres.
As part of your enrolment service package we will make all the arrangements for your final exam. This includes locating a centre and booking the relevant exam/s. Exam fees are additional.
Exam fees can be bundled using the Exam Bundles drop down when adding to basket. Have a look on our Exams Page for a detailed explanation of this service.
The Edexcel IGCSE English exam is available in May/June and Oct/Nov each year. It is assessed over 1 exam paper:
Paper 1 4EB1/01 - 3 hour exam
We generally ask that you book written exams at least 6 months in advance.
Booking your exam after the booking deadline will incur late fees (available for one month after deadline) and high late fees (available up until exam entry closure).
Some students will study for the exam over a period of months or years, as they dictate their own study schedule. We do however have students who will study intensively and prepare in a matter of weeks. You are only constrained by the exam diet. GCSE exams are available in May/June of each year, with core subjects also assessed in January. We are so confident in the CloudLearn model of study that we guarantee you will pass your exam. As long as you do what we recommend, we offer a full money-back guarantee.

By taking part in our Online GCSE English Course, not only will you improve your knowledge and understanding of different areas of English language, but you will develop your cognitive, interpersonal and intrapersonal skills, which can be used in a wide-range of degrees and professions. Not only will you be learning how to express your ideas with clarity and precision, you will also be challenged to think innovatively and use your initiative to create compelling responses.
Additionally, by tackling analytical questions, you will be learning how to think critically, evaluate information and interpret meanings. Furthermore, as many of the sources that you will be studying focus on current political and social issues, you will be learning about social responsibility and the benefits of open-mindedness. We also hope to show you the benefits of continuous learning and intellectual curiosity by inspiring a sustained enjoyment of, and interest in English literature and language.
Therefore, the skills that you will acquire during the CloudLearn GCSE English Course can set you apart from your peers and put you on a path toward further learning or a successful career in a wide-range of occupations.
