Regina Caeli Academy is one of the newest, most exciting, and innovative developments in education in the UK in recent times. We pride ourselves on the formation and education we offer our students, and on our commitment to developing them in their Catholic faith journey. We also take very seriously the wellbeing and safeguarding of the children under our tutelage. As a home-education hybrid, we offer tutoring in our Centre two days a week, with lesson plans and support to parents as they educate their children at home on the other three days of the week. Where did we originate from? Regina Caeli Academy UK was born from the dream of parents who wanted an authentically Catholic, and rigorously academic, education for their children. Regina Caeli Academy in the United States seemed the ideal model, and they graciously accepted the offer to work with us here in establishing our own RCA affiliate. We opened our first Centre in September 2019, and have grown consistently since then. When and where do we open? We are currently located in Meppershalll, Bedfordshire, and open on Mondays and Thursdays, for 32 weeks of the year. Why Regina Caeli Academy UK? Regina Caeli Academy is at the forefront of the burgeoning home-education scene; our aim is to assist parents in giving their children the best education possible. Tutors therefore make use of pre-prepared Lesson Plans, supported by the Curriculum team in the U.S and U.K., and are able to better utilise their time to support parents and students more effectively. We are unique in that we use the Don Bosco method of forming our students to maintain discipline, and we have a carefully thought-out discipline structure to actively encourage growth in virtue, and not just good behaviour.
