Online schooling might seem unrealistic initially, however every family situation is completely different, and there is a varied of reasons why online schooling could be an option.
5
Reasons why online schooling may be necessary for your family
1
You are a nomadic family, moving around and changing school is hard enough for adults, talk less of children, losing their friends, and having to make new friends again, only to move to another city or state. With online schooling, this can be avoided, because the repeated fear of being the new pupil in class is reduced.
2
You want a school using the English curriculum, but it is so expensive in your country, because it is an ‘International Curriculum’, why not access it for a third of the school fees with the same content.
3
Your learning plans include Home-Schooling for a number of years, because that is what is right for your family now.
4
Your child is in a physical school, but parts of the learning is below your expectations, online learning for one or two subjects weekly will bridge the skills gap.
5
You are worried about having strangers in your home for home tuition, which sometimes you are not able to supervise. With online schooling, e-lessons, your children logon, and you can join the class to check on their learning.
