Are your students prepared for exams?
I am not very comfortable with computers and the Internet; will there be help provided?
Tutorials in PDF and video format will be sent to all parents at the start of every school year in order to explain to them how it all works and how to use the necessary tools for everything to go as smooth as possible.
A member of the technical service will contact every new family by phone to explain how the platforms we use work.
The technical service will offer continuous support in order to find concrete solutions to small everyday problems. This support will allow you to gradually familiarise yourself with virtual education and its tools.
What equipment should I be equipped with so that my child can be in good learning conditions?
We ask parents to set a workspace in a quiet room in the house. Your child will need a computer (recommended) or tablet, a printer, a scanner, and a headset with a microphone to avoid echo and feedback.
An excellent internet connection is required as well as equipment powerful enough to allow the classes to be attended by video conference. The platform is accessible via tablet and phone, but keep in mind that with phones and tablets, it is not always possible to have full access to all the software features.
What is an online course?
It is a course whose content is accessible remotely and organised in an online environment. Our lessons are taught daily by qualified teachers in virtual classrooms with a whiteboard, and various features allowing interactivity between the students and the teacher.
The course content meets the same expectations and the same learning content as a regular face-to-face course.

A 10% discount on full schooling (excluding preschool) is granted from the second registration to Pazapa as well as for subsequent ones. The registration fee for the first child , therefore, does not benefit from the “family” reduction.
These discounts do not apply to registration fees.

Your bank account being abroad, will I have international transfer fees?

How will I be able to communicate with the academic counsellors?
What pedagogical methods do you use?
In a flipped classroom, the low-level cognitive tasks are performed independently by the students (consultation of resources containing course elements, information, methodology, etc.).
In the classroom, the teacher is freed from the moments of “lecture” that the pupils can consult independently (at home).
The interaction time is ,therefore, used to work on practical and interactive activities ,allowing teachers to focus on the concepts and points that the students struggle the most with.
During group work, students work on a task in groups of three to five in a responsible and collaborative manner.
For more information, do not hesitate to book an appointment with our registration department.
