Its a question of what the certificates are worth.
If no-one recognises them then they are not much value whatever you call them. But if you can get them endorsed and externally moderated through an existing university they will have as much standing as other degrees. Many colleges award university degrees because they are underwritten by a university.
But be aware there will be a lot of paperwork.
I am not aware of any rules stopping you from being a school online or from awarding your own certificates but they will only have value to others if they are accredited. If you are enrolling children though you may need to consider child protection and data protection issues.

I suggest you think about something else. Degrees can only be (as you've been told) awarded by the appropriate bodies - essentially that boils down to 'universities'. You can, of course, offer certificates of completion but unless you're a validated accrediting body they're just pieces of paper.
That said, if you manage to establish sufficient reputation in the field that people recognise and respect your certification than you will have done very well indeed!

A lot depends on what it is you want to teach.
For example Jason Vale has a passion and a lot of knowledge which he wants to pass on. But he still got his juice therapy course endorsed by an external body. (in this case CMA)

What is your subject area?

Have a look here
https://www.gov.uk/recognised-uk-degrees
There are also other accredited qualifications such as NVQ's, BTEC, and they also have awarding bodies.
There is only one private university in the UK; University of Buckingham. But I thought there was another proposed recently, can't remember where though.

From wikipedia
Universities in the United Kingdom
The University of Buckingham is currently the only fully-fledged private university in the United Kingdom.[14] In July 2010 it was announced that London-based BPP would be granted permission to become a university college.[15] BPP University College is now the UK's only private university college.[15]
Other private degree awarding bodies in the UK include: Ashridge Business School, ifs School of Finance, The College of Law and Regent's College, all of which are privately funded charitable bodies. In addition the private Richmond University has its degrees validated by the public Open University.
All other British universities are public.[citation needed][16] They have considerable institutional autonomy, but are currently funded mainly by government teaching and research grants[citation needed] and the government regulates their tuition fees, student funding and student loans and commissions and regulates research assessments and teaching reviews. However, unlike in Continental European countries, the British government does not own universities' assets, and university staff are not civil servants. Government regulation arises as a condition of accepting funding from bodies such as HEFCE and any university can in principle choose to leave the HEFCE regulated system at any time.[17]
From September 2012 government funding for teaching and background funding for research will be substantially reduced, with one study indicating that annual Government funding for teaching and research will make up just 15% of universities income by 2015.[18]
In the UK, an institution can only use the title "University" or "University College" if it has been granted by the Privy Council, under the terms of the Further and Higher Education Act 1992.[19] Prior to 1992, these titles were conferred by Royal Charter.

I doubt if you could offer a degree course, but anyone can issue a certificate. I could run one out on my computer right now. Pretty pointless though, unless it's recognised by employers etc.

How can you say that? We know nothing about the OP! Its just possible that (s)he is a world leader!!! (Although if (s)he were I expect they would have known more about education, and have done at least some research before posting)
