Taking your family overseas?

This is the question almost every parent asks. The short answer is: not with a structured programme in place. Functional Education covers all core learning areas at the appropriate level for your child’s year. Many families find that their child actually progresses faster at home, in an environment where the pace is theirs and the anxiety is lower.

Please watch our getting started video which covers a lot of the questions you may have.

If you're currently doing a trial, you may find it hard to signup to the paid course.

The solution is to either:

• Wait until your trial is over, then signup using the enrol page
• Cancel your current trial (see the FAQ on how to cancel), then signup using the enrol page.

If you cancel your trial, and signup with the same email address, our plaform will remember which modules you have completed and you'll be able to continue where you left off.

While this is not strictly possible, there is a work-around that you are welcome to use:

1. Cancel your subscription
2. At the end of your billing cycle, we will keep your login active, but you will lose access to your course content.
3. When you are ready to join us again, purchase a new subscription using the same email address and login as you had before. You will now have access to your content, including which courses you have already completed.

We have numbered our classes as follows:

Class 1 - first year of schooling  (could be any age between 5-7 depending on when you choose to start your child at school)

Class 2 - second year of schooling

Class 3 - third year etc

Class 6 and Class 7 are the 'Intermediate' years

‍

You are in control of your subscription.  You only pay for what you use.  Subscriptions are renewed on a monthly or weekly basis.  If you are planning on going away, login to your account and cancel your subscription. This stops the billing process.   When you return, re-enrol with the same email address and carry on where you left off.

Your educational choices are your own.  We provide a series of videos that you are welcome to access.  If a topic doesn't interest you, you can move on to the next.  If a topic totally engages you, then feel free to stay with it as long as you like and move on when you are ready.

You can start your child anytime.

You will find an equipment list at the start of each weeks lessons.

As well as a device connected to the internet (laptop, smart TV, mobile phone, tablet etc.) your child will need some items each week. These are usually things found around the home like: books to write in, coloured pencils, play dough, dice, playing cards etc.
