Impaq: The leading homeschooling curriculum provider in South Africa

Impaq is the top choice for families seeking flexible, high-quality homeschooling solutions from Grade R to Grade 12. Since Impaq aligns all its materials with the national curriculum (CAPS), learners receive an education that seamlessly matches traditional schools, allowing the freedom to learn in a secure home environment!

A holistic approach from Grade R to 12

  • Foundation Phase (Grade R): Fundamental skills must be developed during the first year to prepare learners for future success. The main focus is on gross motor skills, fine motor skills, and sensory development, which are integrated into the three core subjects: Home Language, Mathematics, and Life Skills. This approach promotes the holistic development of learners and helps ensure school readiness.
  • Foundation Phase (Grades 1–3): At this early stage, the focus is on developing critical thinking, problem-solving, and foundational skills in Mathematics, Life Skills, and both Home Language (Afrikaans or English) and First Additional Language (Afrikaans, English or isiZulu) in a way that encourages creativity and curiosity.
  • Intermediate Phase (Grades 4–6): This phase introduces learners to Social Sciences, Natural Sciences and Technology, and Life Skills alongside continued instruction in Mathematics, Home Language, and First Additional Language.
  • Senior Phase (Grades 7–9): At this point, the curriculum expands to include Economic and Management Sciences, Creative Arts, and Life Orientation. It builds on the subjects from the Intermediate Phase, helping learners discover their interests and strengths.
  • Further Education and Training Phase – or FET (Grades 10–12): This final stage of schooling allows learners to choose from close to 20 elective subjects, including Physical Sciences, Life Sciences, Accounting, Business Studies, Geography, History, and more.

Since Impaq aligns its offering fully with the national curriculum, learners can easily transition from a mainstream school and back should they wish to do so.

Assessment and certification

Grade 10 to 12 learners are registered by Impaq with the South African Comprehensive Assessment Institute (SACAI), an Umalusi-accredited assessment body, for the FET Phase. This ensures that learners can complete this phase and ultimately the National Senior Certificate (NSC) at the end of their Grade 12 year.


As the leader in home and online schooling, Impaq offers a host of practical subjects, including Information Technology, Computer Applications Technology, Dramatic Arts, Visual Arts, Consumer Studies, Hospitality Studies, Agricultural Science, and Agricultural Management Practices. Impaq offers dedicated assessment events for selected subjects to support Grade 10 to 12 learners in the assessment of practical and oral components.

Bilingual instruction

Instruction is offered in both English and Afrikaans, allowing parents to select a language that best suits the needs of the learner and family.

Impaq offers:

  • Quality lesson materials: Comprehensive, CAPS-aligned materials to guide learners through their studies.
  • Online learning platform access: The Optimi Learning Portal (OLP) allows learners to access resources, track progress, and attend live interactive online.
  • Support and guidance: Qualified teachers and Impaq’s support team provide ongoing feedback and guidance to parents and learners.

The landscape of education has undergone significant transformations, particularly accelerated by the COVID-19 pandemic which necessitated a shift towards online learning platforms. As we move forward, a new trend has emerged since 2023—the adoption of hybrid schooling models, exemplified by the rise of Smart Schools. These are centers that blend online education with traditional, in-person experiences to create a more versatile and adaptive learning environment.

The Shift to Hybrid Schooling
The transition from fully online to hybrid models in education has been driven by the need for flexibility and the recognition of the benefits of face-to-face interactions. Hybrid schooling allows students to access courses online while also participating in in-person activities at Smart Schools. This model addresses some of the limitations of purely online classes, such as the lack of social interaction and hands-on experiences, which are crucial for comprehensive education.

Benefits of Hybrid Schooling

  • Enhanced Engagement: In Smart Schools, the element of physical presence revitalizes student engagement and motivation by offering a break from purely online environments. This setup ensures that students can directly interact with qualified educators and success advisors, enhancing their learning experience through real-time, personalized feedback.
  • Flexibility and Accessibility: Students are allowed to customize their learning schedules according to their personal and educational requirements. This adaptability enables them to decide when to engage in online study or participate in in-person academic sessions. Such an arrangement supports self-paced learning, whereby students can progress more quickly through less challenging material and allocate more time to difficult subjects or hands-on practice with an instructor's guidance.
  • Balanced Learning: Understanding that students may prefer different learning styles for various types of content is crucial in education. For instance, hands-on experiments might be ideal for grasping scientific principles like the conservation of mass, while visual aids such as videos can enhance comprehension of historical events and their implications. Similarly, traditional pen-and-paper methods often prove most effective for solving physics calculations. The hybrid schooling model, which blends online and in-person instruction, allows students to adapt their learning approach based on the nature of the subject matter. This flexibility not only caters to individual learning preferences but also promotes a more holistic Read more: Wingu Academy
