At UCT Online High School we do schooling differently.
No classrooms
No back to back lessons and lots of wasted time.
Here the focus is on learning.
Trusted by over 8,000 parents



Is your child overwhelmed and disinterested in the traditional schooling system?
Our Online Campus is at the centre of it all. Every day, your child logs in and sees their weekly work plan; a live, interactive view of everything they need to complete in a week, for every subject. It’s the most comprehensive timetable they’ll ever need!


Are you concerned about the safety of your child at mainstream schools?
Every subject is designed as a course, with a defined learning pathway. Learners work through each week’s module in a series of 45 minute lessons using a research-backed approach: “I do, We do, You Do”.
Is your child facing social and academic challenges in their current school?
Under “I do”, a subject expert will always demonstrate. Under “We do”, there is an opportunity to practice, and then under “You do”, learners get an opportunity to put their learning to the test — and all towards a weekly deadline for each subject.


Does your child experience anxiety and prefer online schooling?
Where learners fail their weekly assessments or get stuck, they have access to weekly live streams with Learning Facilitators and a dedicated academic discussion forum. It’s a very structured approach, but with all the flexibility in between.
We totally understand your situation
And the best part — you’re not alone. This is where our Support Coaches come in, because every learner deserves a champion. Our Support Coaches are our superheroes — they hold learners accountable through weekly group check ins and a learner priority system based on at-risk behaviours.
