Ideal Schools

UK's home study experts with over four decades of experience in bookkeeping/related subjects, offering free career advice; comprehensive materials; award-winning tutors; individualised feedback; virtual campus/peer support; life-changing exam/career success. We are a family-run home study college who provide a complete range of bookkeeping, payroll and taxation courses to help you become a self-employed bookkeeper or work within a financial environment. We personalise our support to each individual student to ensure success. We specialise in offering bookkeeping and accounting training via home study, including courses leading to ICB, AAT, CPD qualifications and more. Founded in 1983 we have over 40 years experience in this sector and have helped tens of thousands of students achieve their goals and improve their job prospects and earning potential. Many of our students re-enrol and undertake further study with us in order to widen what they can offer as an employee or to their clients if they are in practice. For those in practice, we also see many former students putting their employees through our training. We are hugely proud that so many of our students feel so positive about their experience that they come back to us again and again. It says so much about the service we provide and the community we build. We have recently formalised the work we do with employers in the form of our Employee Sponsorship Scheme.
