The GC Learning Academy is a homeschool center that was opened by two educators who realised that the current school environment does not suit every child. They decided to offer an alternative to parents who are unsure how to proceed with ensuring that their children finish their schooling and so the GC Learning Academy was born. When looking around the various areas of Johannesburg they settled on the sleepy suburb of Buccleuch as a perfect location, far from the nearest High School, they offer an alternative to long commutes into the city from areas such as Kyalami, Woodmead, Kelvin and Linbro.
The GC Learning Academy now has branches in the original Buccleuch location as well as in Bedfordview, offering quality education to Kensington, Primrose, Senderwood and Bruma.
GC Learning Academy is committed to providing quality education to each and every student who walks through their doors, to achieve this they use a mixture of various teaching
and learning styles as well as close relationship with the Parents/Guardians of their learners. Our goal is to keep our classes small and by doing so ensure that our students recieve individual attention.
The allows GC Learning Academy to feel like a home away from home for each and every student in the Academy and this is why we offer a range of facilities including;
- A Swimming Pool (Buccleuch Site)
- A Vegetable Garden (Buccleuch Site for Agriculture Students)
- Therapy Animals (Rabbits and Dogs) to bring the feelings of calm (not every site)
- Student Accessable Wi-fi
- A full Media System with a Projector and Sound to allow for immersive experiences while watching educational videos and clips.
Using skills gained over a collective lifetime of experience in education we seek to build a soothing and nurturing environment for our students. Working in collaboration with parents we are focused on building life skills alongside academic skills in the students we tutor. We are passionate about helping children achieve academic and personal success.
Every child is different and with our unique approach to each student we ensure that those differences are recognised and built upon rather than squashed or dismissed. The GC Learning Academy is committed to the learners registered with them and will go above and beyond to ensure their success.
