 Pamoja Online Courses
Goal: Ease your teacher recruitment challenges

Academic success starts with great teachers

Don’t allow teacher recruitment challenges to prevent your students reaching

their potential
Pamoja Online Courses allow you to offer subjects that may not be viable due to
teacher recruitment challenges.

Skilled in online learning methodologies, our teachers come from a variety of

backgrounds and countries, bringing a wealth of knowledge and experience to our
online classrooms.

Maximum class size reached? We can help. Sussex Academy

Pamoja Online Courses enable you to continue to
offer subjects that are oversubscribed, keeping class
sizes down, while providing students an opportunity
to benefit from online learning in a truly global
classroom.
“Pamoja offers a nice variety of choices that excite our students,
notably Business Management, Economics, and Psychology. We
would not be able to offer the IB DP if it weren’t for Pamoja.”

 Pamoja Online Courses
Goal: Provide full support for blended learning

Build diversity in the options you’re able to provide students

Online learning, more than ever before, is being considered by schools alongside their school-based courses as an essential
component of school strategy. Schools have shared the following primary drivers for the consideration of online courses,
they provide:

1. Increased diversity in education experiences is genuinely additive. Different skills can be developed and these,
coupled with subject-specific knowledge, are useful points of reference for application to university and beyond.
2. Solutions that mitigate the risk of disrupted education. This has become even more apparent post-pandemic. By
offering a blend of school-based and online courses it is possible to reduce this risk.
3. An option that allows students greater flexibility in how they choose to study a particular subject. Some students
actually prefer to study online!

Pamoja Online Courses are encouraged as an option amongst our

student body, not only for expanding the subject choices, but
also for the unique benefits of online independent learning
