Content Partners

A national reading-for-enjoyment campaign to spark children’s potential through storytelling and reading.

Every child should own a hundred books by the age of five.

A reading program that reaches all students.

  • Our favourite feature of this system is that it is offline… We also find the coaching tool helpful and the fact that we receive a concise report of how each child is progressing.

  • This, indeed, is the next big idea in South African education.

  • I know that if I don't understand something, there must be a video on the topic.

  • I believe as a church you can use the SiB platform as a ministry tool via an after-school programme. It is a good investment for any church or school.

  • We have seen a tremendous amount of engagement and excitement from the learners that have access the tablets, and it’s helped encourage several learners to consistently attend our programmes.

  • I have Grade 7 to Grade 11 learners who use the tablets… The School in a Box lessons support our students, helping them get better marks at school. We have seen the biggest improvement in Maths.

  • Every now and then a simple but powerful idea comes across my desk and demands attention. This is my experience with the School in a Box concept, which can truly revolutionise the local education space.

  • We have seen an undisputed growth in our learners’ results and outcomes… As a result we are now full and are inundated with queries and requests for help. The retention of learners has also improved as a result of the School in a Box

  • The iLearning Centre for me is very nice because I find myself going back to the work I didn’t understand at school and it is actually helping me so much and it will help learners who don’t understand teachers. I really like the iLearning Centre.
  • My daughter, Amy April, a Grade 1 learner at Parkhurst Primary attended the iLearning Centre from March 2016 until August 2016 at Christ the Redeemer church hall. These classes were held for an hour or two each day after school and really helped improved my daughters English and Mathematics, as her term marks, both for these subjects improved . The classes also increased her self-confidence, improved her test and exam scores and provided me with peace of mind.
  • Learners are enjoying the lessons. We got headphones so now everyone can concentrate and focus on their lessons. I am also very pleased with the way their English has improved as they are more confident when reading aloud. I can’t wait for the results at the end of the term.

  • The kids love the lessons so am happy with the purchase. I am mad about the curriculum as it is varied with great content.
