Live Online K–12 with a clear routine and real teacher support.
Live Online is designed for learners who benefit from a regular class routine, scheduled teacher interaction and a fixed grade-level block. Students from Nursery to Grade 12 attend only their assigned 2.5-hour daily block, supported by learning materials, activities, assessments and parent communication across the 47-week academic year.
A good fit for learners who need structure and interaction.
Live Online gives families a predictable routine while keeping the full learning experience online.
Students who learn better with a teacher present
Regular live interaction helps learners ask questions, receive clarification and stay engaged.
Families who prefer a fixed daily routine
Each grade follows one scheduled 2.5-hour block rather than an open-ended daily schedule.
Parents who want visible progress and communication
Activities, assessments, teacher guidance and parent communication help families follow the learner’s progress.
Three daily blocks, aligned across the Middle East and Philippines.
Each learner attends only the block assigned to the learner’s grade. The three blocks are synchronized across Philippine Time, UAE/Oman time and Qatar/Bahrain/Saudi Arabia/Kuwait time.
| Block | Philippines | UAE & Oman | Qatar / Bahrain / Saudi / Kuwait | Assigned Grades |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Block 1 | 1:00 PM–3:30 PM | 9:00 AM–11:30 AM | 8:00 AM–10:30 AM | Kinder · Grade 3 · Grade 6 · Grade 9 · Grade 12 |
| Block 2 | 4:00 PM–6:30 PM | 12:00 PM–2:30 PM | 11:00 AM–1:30 PM | Nursery · Grade 1 · Grade 4 · Grade 7 · Grade 10 |
| Block 3 | 7:30 PM–10:00 PM | 3:30 PM–6:00 PM | 2:30 PM–5:00 PM | Grade 2 · Grade 5 · Grade 8 · Grade 11 Self-Paced Support also uses this support window. |
More than a daily video class.
The 2.5-hour live block is supported by structured learning materials, independent work, assessment and ongoing guidance across the school year.
Live class, independent learning and follow-through.
The exact routine varies by grade, subject and week, but the structure is designed so students are not expected to sit on a video call for the whole day.

Transparent monthly and annual tuition.
Annual tuition is disclosed from the beginning and paid through 12 monthly installments. Families do not need to pay the full-year tuition as one lump sum at enrollment.
A successful online class still needs a strong routine.
Live Online works best when the learner attends consistently, comes prepared and completes required work outside the live session.
