We’ve spoken a lot over the past few weeks about why online learning might be the right fit for you. From mastery-based progression to never having to sit in traffic again, the advantages are obvious. While for most learners getting a cutting-edge education from the top university in Africa is a very attractive prospect in and of itself, success in life is not only measured by good grades; it’s about cultivating inner wellbeing along the way.

Here are three reasons that joining UCT Online High School will bring you more joy:  

Your days are your own

At UCT Online High School, we don’t believe in bells. You can get up when you want, take breaks when you want and work as regularly as you need to achieve your goals. No two learners are the same and neither are their days. Perhaps you’re a night owl or one of those people who thrive after a cat nap? Fantastic! Because there’s no point in nodding off while you’re trying to do maths. Do you like your lunch at 11AM? Great, there’s no point in studying history when you’re hangry. Feel like playing soccer with your friends this afternoon? Do it! It’s the perfect motivation to wake up early and get all your work done.

It’s all about you

At UCT Online High School, you do you. There are no uniforms, prescribed hairstyles, or strict dress codes. Here we believe in radical inclusivity, which means that you are free to express yourself in whatever way you like, as long as it’s respectful of others. What’s more, as part of our vibrant community of almost 5000 learners spread across the country, you’re guaranteed to find a crew of like-minded and inspiring people to ignite you.

Besides our Homeroom and Learning Compass Sessions, we have over 50 Virtual Clubs, covering areas of well-being, creativity, skills development, and special interests. Whatever cool new thing you’re into, we’re into it too!   

You are the master of your own destiny

School isn’t about how many facts you know; it’s about mastering the skills to be successful in life. At UCT Online High School we believe that no skill is more important than self-mastery. You know what works best for you. We give you all the tools you need, including a Support Coach, to empower you to be the best version of yourself you can be. From self-discipline to self-expression, we know that all the magic lies inside you, we’re just here to help you find some answers along the way.
