CambriLearn is a registered, accredited private school that delivers live teaching online. Six curriculum pathways from Grade R to A-Levels, with specialist teachers, structured timetables, and teacher-marked assessments. Not a content platform. A private school with a campus that happens to be online.

A private school is independently funded, sets its own academic standards, employs its own teachers, and is accountable to external accreditation bodies rather than government payroll. CambriLearn meets every one of these criteria. The only difference is the classroom is online.
CambriLearn is accredited by Cognia (international), an approved Pearson Edexcel centre, and registered with both SACAI and the IEB. These are the same accreditation standards that govern traditional private schools. Umalusi quality-assures the National Senior Certificate. CambriLearn is also NCAA approved for student athletes applying to US universities.
Every subject is taught by a specialist teacher through scheduled live lessons. Students ask questions in real time, receive written feedback on assessments, and are held to deadlines. This is the teaching model of a private school, delivered through a screen instead of a physical classroom.
CambriLearn graduates hold offers from Oxford, Cambridge, Harvard, Stanford, UCT, and Stellenbosch. A 98% university acceptance rate across 20 years of operation. These are the outcomes of a private school that takes academic preparation seriously, not a correspondence programme.
The same structure as a traditional private school: timetabled lessons, qualified teachers, marked assessments, and academic accountability. The difference is where the classroom is. See how CambriLearn works for full details.
Timetabled classes with specialist teachers for every subject. Students attend, participate, and ask questions in real time. Lessons are recorded for replay when needed.
Each term has a clear schedule: topics per week, assessment due dates, and examination dates. The timetable is provided. Parents and students do not build it themselves. View timetables.
Assignments and tests are marked by registered teachers with written feedback. Not auto-graded. Students receive rubrics, model answers, and specific commentary on how to improve.
A parent dashboard shows attendance, marks, assessment progress, and upcoming deadlines. Reports can be downloaded as PDFs for record-keeping, school transfers, or sharing with tutors.
Trial examinations simulate the real exam under timed conditions. Revision packs, past paper banks, and exam technique coaching are included. External exams are written at designated centres.
Students have access to academic support staff, subject-specific help sessions, and a student community through CambriCommunity. Online does not mean alone.
Structured daily schedule: Live lessons are typically 4 to 5 hours per day. The remaining study time includes offline work: textbook reading, written assignments, and past paper practice. The structured timetable leaves afternoons free for sport, creative pursuits, or other activities.
Most traditional private schools offer one curriculum. CambriLearn offers six, so families can choose the pathway that fits their child's goals, whether that is South African matric, international qualifications, or a US diploma.
