Do qualified promotional offers apply to the application and placement fee?

No. Please note: qualified promotional offers are only applied to tuition fees. The full application and placement fee is payable on applying to UCT Online High School. After paying the placement fee, the qualified promotional offer will be applied to tuition fees going forward.

If my child attends UCT Online High School, are they considered ‘homeschoolers’? What does this mean?

Okay, let’s separate substance from legality.

In substance, UCT Online High School is very different to most ‘homeschools’. Your child will be joining a fully-fledged online high school, with a community of friends, teachers and support coaches.

This notwithstanding, we also provide tutorials and other educational support to Grade 8 and 9 learners who are registered with the Department of Basic Education as homeschoolers.

What does this mean for you?

Homeschooling regulations only apply to the compulsory schooling phase (from Grade 1 - Grade 9). At this age, parents are required to register their children as homeschoolers with their Provincial Education Department or apply for an exemption from compulsory education. Please visit the Home Education page for more info or alternatively reach out to our Admissions Team if you need help: admissions@uctohs.valentureonline.com

For Grade 10–12 learners, parents do not have to register their children with their Provincial Education Department.

Where can I access your Learner Code of Conduct?

The Learner Code of Conduct document can be accessed via the website.

Is a Placement Fee required?

To secure your place at our school and accept the conditional offer, we require a once-off Placement Fee to be paid in advance. This payment is non-refundable and will not be deducted from the total tuition cost.

This fee includes, but is not limited to the costs associated with record verification, Adult Matric learner onboarding and the purchase of technology licences on behalf of the Adult Matric learner.

How can I request a telephonic call or assistance from an Admissions Consultant?

The Admissions Team would love to hear from you and assist with any questions that you may have. Please click here to request a call.

Who are the Learning Facilitators?

When does your academic year start?

We follow a southern hemisphere academic calendar, which runs from January to December each year.

How are matric final marks calculated?

The Amended Senior Certificate (ASC) is scored against the same metric and Admission Point Scores (APS) as the National Senior Certificate (NSC), which are awarded when a learner completes their matric at high school. The points are broken down into percentage groups that equal an admission point score that determines whether you will be granted access to a tertiary institution. Every subject is awarded a point based on the percentage result of their examination. Tertiary institutions use this system to determine entry requirements for their courses.
