To all schools and educators out there who are feeling the stress of having to close schools and are losing valuable face-time with your learners, we are sorry. This cannot be an easy time for you.

Firstly, we can help with mathematics immediately

We have our mathematics video resources which are made up of over 2000+ teaching videos following the CAPS curriculum and we are allowing learners and teachers to enrol for free onto this resource whilst schools are closed due to COVID-19. More details here.

At 2 pm every Thursday, we are hosting a live webinar to show all teachers (and any interested learners) how to best use our platform during this time. We will then open for discussion in other ways that we can help schools to continue to deliver education to their learners. You need to register for the webinar which you can do so via our webinar link provided by our team, just click the orange chat button and ask for the next webinar link or email [email protected]

Secondly, the future is unknown but we can work together to provide education no matter what COVID-19 throws at us.

Currently, the schools are set to go back on the 14th of April 2020. Whilst we remain optimistic that the spread of COVID-19 in South Africa might have been slowed or stopped by then we feel it is prudent to plan for an alternate scenario whereby schools may need to stay closed for longer.

If you are an educator and want to work with us at getting your teaching online so that your learners can continue to learn, regardless of the school being closed, then please get in contact with us. We are not charging anything for this service and want to make sure we can help you to keep your school’s open… even if it means going digital for the foreseeable future.

Send an email to [email protected] stating you are a school/teacher and wish to talk and we will get in touch with you.
