Frequently Asked Questions

To study with Globe Schooler, your child will need a stable internet connection, a headset, and a quiet space where they can focus comfortably.

Our online classes are designed to be interactive and dynamic. Students can speak with their teacher, write on a shared whiteboard, take part in activities, and interact with their classmates in a structured virtual classroom.

Online learning gives families the flexibility to access a structured education wherever they are in the world, while keeping a clear academic routine for their child.

With Globe Schooler, there is no need to travel to a physical school. Your child follows the British curriculum online, in a safe and organised learning environment, with experienced teachers and regular academic support.

This format is particularly suitable for international families, expatriates, travelling families, or parents looking for a clear and flexible educational solution.

Student progress is monitored throughout the year through regular assessments, class participation, assignments, and internal evaluations.

These assessments help our teachers identify each child’s strengths, areas for improvement, and learning progress in line with the Cambridge curriculum standards.

At the end of each term, parents receive a detailed school report with clear feedback on their child’s progress in each subject. Parent-teacher meetings may also be organised to discuss results, objectives, and next steps.

Lessons are delivered live through a dedicated online platform. Students are asked to connect a few minutes before the start of each class, according to their timetable.

During lessons, students can communicate with the teacher, use the microphone, take part in discussions, complete interactive tasks, and follow the lesson through screen sharing, video, chat, and digital learning tools.

Classes are structured to remain engaging and age-appropriate, with short breaks when needed so that students can stay focused and comfortable.

Yes. Outside live lessons, students may be given homework or independent tasks to reinforce what they have learned in class.

Homework allows teachers to check understanding, support progress, and help students develop good study habits. Assignments are usually submitted through a dedicated online platform.

If your child misses a lesson, they will have access to the lesson report on the platform.

This report allows the student to see what was covered during the lesson, catch up on the key points, and prepare for future activities or assessments. If needed, students may also contact their teacher through the dedicated communication channel to ask questions about the lesson.

Our timetable is generally organised around the French time zone, Paris time. Classes may take place in the morning, usually between 9:00 and 12:00, or in the afternoon depending on the class level and schedule.

Families living outside France should take the time difference into account to ensure that their child can attend live lessons comfortably.

We aim to provide a clear and regular timetable while keeping a degree of flexibility for international families and different learning needs.
