We started with Online school at Term 3 and i wanted to find out if you provide Social Gathering once in awhile since Teenagers make friends for life in High School? Thats the only problem that we are currently facing with Online school.
HI Isabel, Thanks for reaching out with your concern. UCT Online High School is all online so we don't have physical spaces for learners to meet up in. However, we believe that there is so much life outside the classroom! We encourage our learners to explore external sports clubs and societies, as well as meet up to socialise and study together. At the beginning of the year learners will be given access to the general locations of their peers so that they are able to meet up (those that live near each other) and we have internal chatrooms on our learning platforms to help them facilitate this. All the best, The UCT Online High School
Hi Dutch, The Boutique Campuses are now part of the St Stithians Online School Offering. It is no longer a Valenture Institute Campus as they no longer have an internalised school. Their focus now is on offering their proprietary learning technology to create world-class online schools with partner schools. All the best, the UCT Online High School
Hi Unaye, English is the medium of instruction for UCT Online High School learners, and additional languages offered include Afrikaans and isiXhosa for 2022. UCT Online High School is planning to offer additional African languages for 2023 and beyond - this will be communicated in due course. For more info, please visit our website: www.uctonlinehighschool.com
Are tests written physically , pen and paper or digitally , online.. The current online school i’m at requires a lot of printing and scanning which kind of defeats the purpose of online school for me.
Hi there, the majority of tests and assessments are done online. However, there may be certain tasks requiring additional resources. Digital textbooks will be provided and are already included in the tuition costs. Learning materials include all learning content; digital textbooks; tests and examinations (excluding grade 12). You may however need to purchase set work books for literature. You will be required to make sure you have the necessary stationary and equipment. Please see the list here: assets.website-files.com/60dc7a9971e17333e8780665/60f91121bf880df7eb8d3623_Stationery%20List%20(4).pdf?fbclid=IwAR3BWAoEp_YY2QAd8w3WrkAQr6bFULSZqt_h9WaAyBpcNpAizICpr6qVOls All the best, The UCT Online High School Team
