Depending on the programme, Educe provides educational guidance, placement analysis, programme planning, progress monitoring and reports, parent communication, assessments, and mentoring. Reading Eggs and Wolkskool are specifically different: they do not include Educe academic monitoring.

Reading Eggs & Mathseeds offers informal, play-based enrichment for ages 4–6. MobyMax from Grade 1 provides a supported core programme and includes the compulsory EduLux literacy programme in Grades 1–3. Highlands Prep offers a formal American school pathway from Kindergarten.

MobyMax provides more reinforcement, placement insight and targeted gap-filling. Study Island is more concise and textbook-like, with printable worksheets, and generally suits independent Grades 4–9 learners who grasp concepts quickly.

TABE strengthens Mathematics and English only and is available from age 16. Study Island Pre-GED® also includes Science and Social Studies, providing a broader academic bridge toward the end of Grade 9.

TABE is preparation for learners who still need foundational Mathematics and English skills. GED® Academy prepares ready learners for the four official high-school equivalency examinations. TABE itself is not a qualification or a complete secondary curriculum.

GED® Academy prepares learners for the GED® high-school equivalency credential. Highlands Prep provides a route to the American High School Diploma. Admission and acceptance requirements always vary between institutions and countries.

MobyMax includes progress reporting, with optional Mentoring & Monitoring in Grades 4–9. Study Island includes Mentoring & Monitoring. TABE and GED® require it for ages 16–18. Highlands Prep includes certified teacher grading and local Educe support.

Reading Eggs & Mathseeds has no Educe monitoring, reports, assessment, mentoring or WhatsApp support. For Wolkskool, Educe facilitates registration only; parents manage the reports supplied by Wolkskool.

Yes, for MobyMax, Study Island and Wolkskool. GED® and TABE do not offer trials; GED® sample lessons are linked from its programme page.

All programmes need internet access. A laptop or desktop generally provides the best experience, while tablets work for many activities. Smartphones can be limited for some assignments.

MobyMax, Study Island, Highlands Prep and Wolkskool operate as ongoing monthly subscriptions payable throughout the year until cancelled under the stated policy.

One calendar month's written notice is required and outstanding fees must be paid. No cancellations are accepted during November. If enrolled during November, the December subscription is also payable.

Both provide a non-refundable, non-transferable 12-month licence. Learners who need more time renew for another 12 months at the applicable fee; unused time cannot be refunded or transferred.

No. The parent or legal guardian is responsible for registering the learner for homeschooling. Educe provides educational programmes and guidance but is not responsible for registering learners with the Ministry. Read the legality guidance.

The Ministry may request progress reports or assessments to ensure that learners are receiving an appropriate education. For this reason, Educe recommends that parents keep organised academic records throughout the learner's homeschooling journey.
