    SnapStudy education initiative now free to SA students

    To mitigate the impact the Covid-19 lockdown has had on the school year, Sandton City, Nelson Mandela Square, Eastgate Shopping Centre, Liberty Midlands Mall, Liberty Promenade Shopping Centre and Botshabelo Mall have made their SnapStudy education initiative freely available to learners for a limited time. Students from both government and private schools will be allowed to access complimentary online high school courses.

    SnapStudy was designed to offer shoppers, based on their loyalty and spend within the abovementioned malls, the opportunity to study online Boston Connect courses. Boston Group, through its Ivy Schools, finds itself in the ideal position to step in and assist in the months ahead with its distance learning capabilities and array of multimedia resources, ready to engage learners and create a space for interactivity, creativity and knowledge construction. And with the funding and sponsorship of learners from respective malls, and curricula and home-schooling expertise from the Boston Group – they are making it a reality for high school students whose schooling has been interrupted, and who do not have access to either home schooling or digital e-learning through their schools.

    How does it work?

    Interested learners need to apply by sending a WhatsApp to (011) 551 9019 (this is a WhatsApp hotline) and provide their cellphone number or email address, as well notify SnapStudy as to their nearest mall (from the list provided above). Once the submission has been processed, learners will be notified for their complimentary online tutorials.

    Learners will then need to visit SnapStudy to register for the courses they are interested in. All high school courses available will include course lectures, which can be done in their own time, as well as regular assessments and report back to parents.

    “The President, during his announcement, asked corporate South Africa to contribute as much as possible during what will be a very difficult time for everyone, especially those that are impoverished,” stated the participating malls. “We believe that by assisting school students, through SnapStudy, we can create some positive educational outcomes, and help others stand in solidarity, during such an unprecedented time.”
