GENERAL QUESTIONS
Is GetAhead based on the South African school curriculum?
Yes. GetAhead is based entirely on the South African curriculum and is OBE compliant. The content in GetAhead was authored by highly qualified South African teachers and is therefore relevant to the work your child is being taught in school.
How quickly will my child’s results improve?
That all depends on how motivated your child is to do well. The more often your child uses GetAhead, in conjunction with paying attention in class and doing the required homework he or she gets from school, the faster you’ll start seeing better results.
Is GetAhead a complete curriculum?
No. GetAhead covers between 80 – 90% of the work that your child is doing at school.
Will GetAhead teach my child everything?
No. GetAhead is designed to complement the work that your child’s educator is teaching to them in the classroom. It is recommended to use GetAhead as a revision, consolidation and self-assessment tool.
