What we offer our partners
What USPA Provides
USPA gives schools a practical way to meet students’ needs without adding pressure to internal staffing or scheduling.

Students learn with qualified online teachers who know their course, give detailed feedback, and stay in regular contact.
More flexibility in the school day
Our self-paced model fits around school timetables and helps students take courses that may not fit into a fixed schedule.

How We Would Partner Together
USPA’s on-demand and self-paced courses are a great way for schools to offer more to their students through a partnership with USPA. When you partner with us, we provide the courses, teachers, support, and resources so you don’t have to worry about sourcing them yourself.

Messaging and interaction embedded within assignments that provide productive and supportive feedback.
1:1 Meetings
Students can meet teachers 1:1 to grasp a better understanding of the curriculum and work through questions.

FAQs: US Curriculum Schools
USPA enables your students to remain enrolled in your school while studying one or two additional US curriculum courses. The offer is designed to help schools expand course choice, add AP options, support credit recovery, strengthen transcripts, and respond to timetable or staffing constraints without requiring you to build every course internally.
Which students benefit most from individual courses at USPA?
Students who need AP courses, specialist academic subjects, course acceleration, credit recovery, transcript enhancement, university preparation or a subject not available in their current timetable are likely to benefit most.
What does taking a class at USPA look like?
USPA uses Instructure Canvas to host on-demand courses. If you’d like a walkthrough of what a teacher’s class looks like, hear from teachers, Learning Coaches, and students, you can join a Virtual Open House or schedule a call with admissions to get your questions answered.
Why USPA over a content-only provider?
USPA combines curriculum, teachers, feedback, support and optional Learning Coach provision. This makes it more suitable where schools want a managed academic service rather than simply access to course materials.Â
Can this support university applications?
Yes. The service can help students build stronger academic evidence through recognised US curriculum courses, AP opportunities where appropriate, and transcript-strengthening options.
How much does it cost?
Pricing depends on how many courses are needed and if you require the coached or non-coached route. We discuss pricing when you book a call with admissions.
What’s the difference between the coached and course-only routes?
There are two routes. The coached route includes USPA Learning Coach support. The course-only route is suited to schools that already have internal academic coordination in place.Â
The coached route is best when you want USPA to provide additional pacing, communication, and accountability support. The school provides light-touch coordination, confirmation of course fit, and relevant school liaison.
The course-only route is best when you already have a staff member who can coordinate student engagement locally. The school provides local mentoring, progress follow-up, and day-to-day coordination.
