Surrey Online School works with an online education provider that is accredited by the Department for Education under the Online Education Accreditation Scheme (OEAS).

​

OEAS is a non-statutory accreditation scheme introduced by the Department for Education to assess the quality and safeguarding arrangements of full-time online education providers in England.

​

Accreditation under OEAS means the provider has been independently reviewed against the Department for Education’s standards, providing assurance around the quality and safety of the online provision being delivered.

​

OEAS accreditation is not the same as statutory registration. Online education providers cannot register with the Department for Education in the same way as schools.
