Student learning the KABV curriculum online in Afrikaans

Taught entirely in Afrikaans

All lesson content, live lessons, tests and assessments are delivered in Afrikaans. Your child learns in the language they think and perform best in.

The NSC, universally recognised

The National Senior Certificate is accepted by every South African university. No exemption needed. The same qualification every other SA school offers.

Qualified Afrikaans teachers

Live lessons are presented by teachers who teach in Afrikaans, genuine mother-tongue instruction from subject specialists rather than translated material.

Live lessons plus recorded lessons

Weekly live, timetabled lessons are backed by a full library of recordings. Your child never misses a class and can rewatch any lesson before a test.

SACAI exam body

Students are assessed through SACAI, the Umalusi-accredited exam body that specialises in distance education. It leads to the same NSC accepted by all universities.

Real friendships, built in
