The services include access to online courses with recorded classes, video content, interactive elements and asynchronous assessments, synchronous (live) classes, set assessment periods were tests and exams are set and marked by qualified staff.

Any other resources or activities, outside of the teaching and tutoring, that you wish to participate in will be covered by you as they arise.
It is the duty of the learners and their parents/legal guardians to ensure that all necessary equipment is purchased at their own cost.

ACCESS TO THE ONLINE SCHOOL, ASSESMENTS AND INTERUPTIONS TO ACCESS

In the vent that you cannot access the online school, the platform or the online classes, please notify support@wingu-academy.com. All classes are recorded for your convenience to view at your earliest convenience.
To protect the integrity of assessments, students must write under invigilation. If a time outside of the scheduled time and date of assessment is required for medical or other valid and recognized reasons, an additional invigilated assessment can be requested at an additional charge.
You have chosen the route of online schooling, and as such understand that there are certain aspects which are different than a brick-and-mortar school. You hereby acknowledge that Wingu Academy does not have control over your internet or electricity access and that it remain your responsibility to ensure that your children have the appropriate tools, devices and access to participate in all schooling activities.
In the event of electricity disruptions in your local area, or scheduled power cuts (such as load-shedding) it remains the responsibility of the parents to make alternative arrangements for access or alternatively for the students to catch-up any work by watching lesson recordings and reviewing prescribed reading materials and online coursework at the earliest possible convenience.
Assessments are very important periods at Wingu Academy and in order to protect the integrity of the tests and exams, it is important for the parents of each student to make sure they are prepared for the tests in all aspects – both by studying for such assessments and in having a quiet, secure space to conduct the assessment observing all test/exam regulations and with complete academic honesty.
It is impractical and not possible for Wingu Academy to make alternative arrangements for each student nationally or internationally for all possible sources of interruption of access to assessments including but not limited to bad weather, pandemics, electricity power cuts, water supply disruptions, protest action, local warfare, access to the internet, criminal activity that results in loss or damage of electronic devices used for schooling and other aspects out of control of the Academy. In areas where these types of occurrences are regular in frequency, it remains the responsibility of the guardians to ensure that alternative arrangements and plans are made to conduct secure and efficient assessments. In the event that the specific date and time of such an assessment cannot be achieved by the student, an alternative date and time under special invigilation and supplementary exam/test conditions can be applied for but will be subject to an additional administrative and examination charge.

DISCLAIMERS

You acknowledge that Wingu Academy does not take any responsibility for any loss of data, or damage or destruction to any property of whatever nature (including study material or online resources) utilised by the learner unless damage occurs to that property either because Wingu Academy or its staff did not exercise the degree of care, diligence and skill that can reasonably be expected of a person responsible for managing property belonging to another person, when handling, safeguarding or using the property;

Unless you expressly notify us in writing to the contrary, you consent to your Child participating, under proper supervision, both in and outside Wingu Academy, in activities (including outings) which may entail some risk of physical injury to a learner travelling to and participating in activities and programmes outside Wingu Academy. Subject to Wingu Academy taking reasonable care to avoid harm and save for any gross negligence on the part of Wingu Academy, its employees or agents, Wingu Academy is not responsible for loss or damage resulting from such activities or programmes and you indemnify Wingu Academy against any claims in that regard.

You accept and agree that the learner may appear in recordings of the classes if their camera is switched on during class. If you do not consent to the Learner appearing in these recordings, you must ensure that they do not have their camera’s enabled. Wingu Academy will not be held liable for recordings that are made if your child(ren) do not switch of their camera’s during classes. By enrolling in Wingu Academy, you agree that the learner may appear in such recordings and that Wingu Academy may reasonably use these recordings in marketing campaigns or for future educational use.

Examinations and Courses

Wingu Academy is Pearson Edexcel accredited. Our courses are Cambridge aligned in order to help learners prepare for their IGCSE and A/AS Level Examinations but learners will receive their certification directly from Cambridge International Examinations (CIE).

Wingu Academy bears no responsibility in the correct selection of subjects for access to University. It is the responsibility of the learners and their parents or legal guardians to ensure that the learner will receive entrance to the university of their choice based on the subject choice and achievement therein.

Learners are regarded as independent learners by the CIE. Learners will have to write the Cambridge International Exams at a Cambridge test venue that accommodates independent learners. Continuous assessments will provide proof of whether learners are ready to write the final IGCSE exams. It is still, however, the responsibility of the parents/legal guardians and learners to determine if they are ready to write the exams. Learners must make their own arrangements regarding the exams and the correct exam centres. The cost of writing the exams and registering with a specific centre are not included in the tuition fees. The following website will provide you with the necessary information about how to register as a Private Candidate for the Cambridge International Exams: https://help.cambridgeinternational.org/hc/en-gb/articles/203475992-How-do-I-register-for-Cambridge-exams-as-a-private-candidate-

How to find a registered Cambridge School:

https://www.cambridgeinternational.org/why-choose-us/find-a-cambridge-school/

Exams are written twice a year in May/June and October/November each year. Every school and exam centre sets their own exam fees that cover the Cambridge International costs as well as the use of their facilities. Learners should contact their nearest exam centre at least 3 months in advance to ascertain all information.

Wingu Academy is SACAI accredited and introduced the CAPS curriculum in 2022 for Grade 10. Grade 11 – 12 to follow in 2023.

GENERAL OBLIGATIONS – PARENTS

You will inform Wingu Academy in writing, prior to admission and enrolment, of any special educational needs of your Child known to you, of the kind.

You will provide the necessary infrastructure and hardware to enable the Learner to attend individual electronic classes in an environment conducive to attention and concentration.

Wingu Academy encourages you to register the Learner younger than 15 years old as a Home School student at the Department of Basic Education or to seek the advice of the Pestalozzi Trust. Wingu Academy accepts no responsibility for ensuring that all legal requirements are met. Please view the following document explaining this process:

https://www.education.gov.za/Portals/0/Documents/Publications/Home%20Education/Home%20Education%20Registration%20Process.pdf?ver=2020-01-14-101806-077

You will register the Learner for the Cambridge Assessment International Examinations (CAIE) and pay all necessary examination fees at your selected examinations center. The learner must be registered with the CAIE at an exam center near you once the exams are to be written. There are alternative examination bodies that you can consider as well such as the Pearson Edexcel qualifications or alternatively when choosing the South African NSC the option of the SACAI examinations.

In order to fulfill our obligations, we need your co-operation. Without detracting from any specific obligations contained in this contract, you are required to fulfill your own obligations under these terms and conditions; encourage the Learner in his or her studies, and give appropriate support at home, keep Wingu Academy informed of matters which affect a Learner, maintain a courteous and constructive relationship with Academy staff and attend meetings and otherwise keep in touch with Wingu Academy where a Learners interests require you to do so.

The Head of the Academy may in his or her discretion require you to remove or may suspend or expel a Learner if your behaviour is, in the reasonable opinion of the Head, so unreasonable as to affect or likely affect the progress of a Learner at Wingu Academy or the well-being of Wingu Academy staff or to bring Wingu Academy into disrepute.

The Head of the Academy may further, at his/her discretion, require you to remove, or may suspend or expel a Learner from Wingu Academy, if he/she considers that a Learner’s attendance, progress or behaviour (including behaviour outside the academy) is seriously unsatisfactory and in the reasonable opinion of the Head of the Academy the Learner’s removal is in Wingu Academy’s best interests, or those of any Learner enrolled at Wingu Academy. In this case, the Learner’s access to Wingu Academy’s programs or material will be terminated immediately and without notice, or at a specified date that is shorter than full-term, with or without notice in any form, as is reasonable under the circumstances. Wingu Academy will not be required to give you a full term’s written notice under these circumstances. Should the Head of the Academy exercise this right, your deposit will be forfeited. However, any prepaid fees will be refunded to you.

Wingu Academy rules set out examples of offences likely to be punishable by suspension or expulsion. These examples are not a closed list and a Learner may be expelled or suspended for offences which are not included in these examples. In particular, the Head of the Academy may decide that suspension or expulsion for a lesser offence is justified where there has been previous misbehaviour by the Learner, or the circumstances of the case otherwise justify such action. These rules are contained in the Code of Conduct. By signing this contract, you acknowledge that you read and understood the Code of Conduct. You agree to comply with all the terms contained therein.
