Distance learning is where students are given material that they work through alone, and if they run into problems, they need to call a teacher for help. At Meridian Apex Scholars Academy, our students engage their teachers during live real-time interactive sessions according to a structured daily timetable.

Meridian Apex Scholars Academy has structured classes just like traditional schools. Our students interact and engage with teachers and other students in online classes in real time. Junior school: 8:00 to 12:45 Senior school: dependent on subjects taken

Meridian Apex Scholars Academy has four assessment cycles and issues 4 report cards. During each assessment cycle, parents are encouraged to monitor the progress of assessments done on a weekly basis and to engage teachers should they need to.

Support at Meridian Apex Scholars Academy has two modes: Firstly, students can request assistance at any time from their teachers, and secondly, after analysis of assessments, teachers are proactive in putting in place extra lessons to address any gaps or deficits.

Meridian Apex Scholars Academy has an annual conference at the beginning of every year, which brings all our teachers together for a few days to learn about the latest trends in online teaching. Meridian Scholars also has ongoing training and development throughout the year for their teaching, with a focus on increasing student engagement during lessons.

Meridian Scholars focuses predominantly on building relationships with students during our live online lessons. Class sizes foster student engagement, and every child is understood by each of their teachers. We encourage a partnership with the parents, working together to optimise the students’ experience. Communication between parents and school is simple and highly effective.
