Now you can tick the boxes regarding E-Learning compliance
in your School Improvement Plan (SIP) 
E-Classroom is proud to announce its NEW academic core content programme from CAPS in the form of interactive E-lessons. We cover all the subjects from grade R to grade 7. Our lessons are available in Afrikaans and English and Xhosa (Foundation Phase). Learning is enhanced by videos that are embedded into the lessons. No internet connection is necessary. The lessons integrate the subject content with a combination of sound, colour and movement, making learning fun. Our lessons can seamlessly work with almost all types of interactive devices. It can also be loaded on Android devices as well as iPhone. All schools should at this point be changing their teaching methodologies to incorporate E-Learning. This can be paid through your norms and standards allocation. This core content programme is a stand-alone licensed product for schools and is not available on the support platform.
