Not too long ago, worldschooling was considered a very niche, alternative form of education. However, thanks to the rise of remote work, more families are starting to incorporate travel into their children’s education.
Worldschooling is a loose term that really just distinguishes traditional homeschoolers — those that, well, learn primarily at home — from those that learn while traveling for long periods of time. Many worldschoolers are advocates of “experiential learning”, meaning kids can soak up so much of the history, culture, and language of a new place by simply exploring their new surroundings.
There are so many ways that a family can worldschool, but one popular way is by attending worldschooling hubs. These hubs are dedicated places where traveling kids can socialize with and learn from each other.
Since worldschooling is becoming more popular, there are new hubs that pop up almost daily. These hubs are incredibly diverse. While almost all have a strong unschooling, child-led approach to learning, some hubs have a more established presence with a drop-off program and set curriculum. Others are more informal and focus more on socialization rather than structured learning. And still, some groups don’t even stay in one spot: some groups of families hire a teacher that travels with them, which allows for a consistent learning strategy and social group for the kids no matter where the families travel.
Below you’ll find a detailed list of worldschooling opportunities.
You can filter the list by program type (school, camp, pop-up hub, group travel, or online program) as well as by location, and age of students accepted.
All opportunities listed below are for informational purposes only. Remote Family has no relationship with any of the providers here and we recommend that you do your own research and interviews with the worldschooling providers before you enroll your student.
