The scope of this Special Issue encompasses the development, implementation, and evaluation of virtual schools, with a focus on innovation, accessibility, diversity and educational outcomes. It aims to provide significant coverage of countries including from the Global South and smaller countries (including Small Island States).

We hope that some authors may wish to collaborate on studies spanning several countries or states. In-depth analysis of specific virtual schools is encouraged, preferably with input from practitioners at these schools, with a view to drawing relevant lessons for other virtual schools. It is also hoped that some papers will focus on the use and impact of open educational resources in virtual schools.
