The Online Parent Support Association (OPSA) was founded in 2020 (during COVID 19 Lockdown) to provide online support for parents or guardians:
Who opt to home school learners on a temporary or full-time basis; or
Who wish to add additional support for learners who attend a mainstream school.
The OPSA online platform focuses on the grades that fall within compulsory schooling in South Africa, i.e., Grade 1 to Grade 9 (with content for Grade R as well).
OPSA aims to provide affordable CAPS* aligned learning programmes, daily online lesson content and term assessment.
Currently all OPSA services are available in English and Afrikaans teaching mediums.
Important to note:
OPSA is not a school.
An OPSA account gives a learner access to the services offered on the OPSA platform, it does not constitute a registration for home schooling at the DBE.
At OPSA we offer the following services for home schooling:
