Prospectus/Who it's for/Parents & guardians
Supporting a learner

Understand the choices — and the money — honestly.

You want to help without pretending to know it all. The Family Brief turns your learner's real options into plain language — the routes, the deadlines, and the money side without the sugar-coating.

  • A parent or guardian
  • Worried about cost and funding
  • Helping decide what comes after school
Why it matters

Wanting to help without taking over, most parents are stuck guessing at choices and costs they were never shown — and the money is where it gets scary.

  • The gap between fees and funding is real, and easy to discover too late.
  • Deadlines and requirements move fast; a missed one costs a whole year.
  • Pushing the wrong path is a risk when you can’t see the whole board.

Honest status: parents don't have a separate login yet, and the Family Brief is still being wired up. Today the best move is to set up the Desk alongside your learner — you'll see everything they see. Their marks and details stay theirs: protected under POPIA, never sold, visible only to their own account.

How it works
  1. 1

    Set up the Desk together

    With your learner, in minutes — you see everything they see.

  2. 2

    Read the options in plain language

    The Family Brief turns their real routes and deadlines into plain words.

  3. 3

    Understand the money

    Costs, funding and the gap — honestly, without sugar-coating.

For example

Say your child is in Grade 12 and you’re worried about whether you can afford their options.

  1. Set up the Desk together in minutes — you see everything they see.
  2. The plain-language view lays out their real routes, deadlines and the money honestly (the full Family Brief is still being wired up — it says so).
  3. You help decide with the costs and funding in the open, not in the dark.

You support the decision with the real picture — the choices and the money — instead of guessing.

Illustrative — a hypothetical, not a real user.

Questions
Do I get my own login?

Not yet — a guardian view is in build. Today the best move is to set up the Desk alongside your learner.

Will it tell me the real costs?

Yes — the money side is shown honestly: costs, funding and the gap. The full Family Brief is still being wired up.

Does it cost anything?

Getting started is free. Students never pay to see their options.
