Boston Online Home Education  (BOHE) has a mission to provide relevant,  quality, internationally accredited private education to learners. Focussing on empowering secondary school learners both locally and globally, Boston Online Home Education has chosen the Cambridge curriculum as the gold standard for high school learners. 

Specialising in skills of critical thinking, creativity and problem solving, learners both locally and worldwide will be exposed to expert educators providing the best practices of teaching and learning in the context of a global curriculum.

Believers in community initiatives, BOHE extended their bursary offerings and Invest in SA programme to the Online Home education. Increasing access to top education. Through Boston’s Invest in SA subsidy programme, the online home education is making access as broad as possible, and addressing the country’s systemic education challenges by ensuring that the fees remain affordable.

“As a result, our monthly fees of R2 500 for all levels include all textbooks and workbooks”.

We have a committee that evaluates every request for a bursary. These requests are submitted via the branch managers through our new SAM system. Applications are submitted with all relevant documents including IDs, and a letter of motivation.

The Bursary Offering

As a registered Associate of Cambridge International Education, BOHE provides the opportunity of two Cambridge streams:  The Cambridge International Certificate of Education (ICE) for learners turning 14 in the first year of registration and who have achieved either a Grade 7 or 8.  And the Advanced International Certificate of Education (AICE) Diploma for learners turning 16 in the first registration year and who have achieved either a Grade 9 or 10 or the ICE. The AICE Diploma offers the coveted Cambridge International AS (Advanced Supplementary) and A (Advanced) Level Qualifications.  Both ICE and AICE require two years of learning each.

(Please note that external examinations fees are excluded from the bursary). Every submission is considered by the committee. An attempt is made to assist as many applicants as possible for the school.  Of huge benefit to our bursary recipients is that they will not have to spend extra money on textbooks as all books are included in the fees/ bursary. It has always been the belief of the campus that academic success is greatly increased when one matches a learner’s interest and talents to his/her career choice.
