Nisai bring a wealth of experience in providing bespoke online learning solutions and we are looking forward to their participation in the programme.
By focusing on the individual needs of each learner, the Nisai Virtual Academy is able to cater for specific learning styles and offer flexible provision moulded around the requirements of each young person and is suitable both as an alternative or to compliment mainstream schools and colleges.
The Nisai Virtual Academy provides an inspiring online environment in which gifted and talented young people can participate in a range of courses designed to challenge, motivate and engage, helping them to reach their full potential.
The online learning communities, which lie at the heart of the Nisai Virtual Academy, provide a safe and secure platform for learners to interact, develop relationships, share and collaborate without many of the pressures faced by students in a mainstream setting.
The scope of provision offered by the Nisai Virtual Academy includes live, fully interactive online lessons with Nisais fully trained, subject specialist teachers. Due to the interactive nature of the lessons, students are afforded a more personal, one-to-one experience than is often available in school or college, enabling each learners individual learning style and preferences to be catered for.
By grouping students according to ability, rather than by age, The Nisai Virtual Academy enables young people to participate in courses which consistently challenge and expand their thinking in a highly engaging way, enabling these students to progress at a pace that reflects their ability.
