Online Safety Classes for Kids in Kenya

Who this course is for

Ages 6–8 learn with a parent through drawings and spoken explanations. Ages 9–11 create guided projects. Ages 12–14 add testing and comparisons. Ages 15–17 extend the projects and explain trade-offs. The entry assessment helps identify a useful starting point; it does not replace teacher guidance.

What your child will make

How learning works

The four foundation courses include short teacher videos with practical activities. The eight project paths use guided workshops and built-in workspaces. Children save private projects and submit them to assigned teachers. Weekly one-hour sessions use teacher-provided Google Meet links. A course certificate requires all lessons completed and a teacher-approved final project scoring at least 70; it is a school certificate, not an accredited qualification.

Membership: KSh 3,000 monthly, KSh 8,500 quarterly or KSh 32,000 annually per child. Payment is reviewed by the school before course access starts.
