Absence & Discontinuation Policies

We promote regular learning through home-work of short time span every day. We recommend that students continue with the programme throughout the year. In particular, school holidays present an ideal opportunity to achieve significant progress in absence of other commitments. Research from German Professor Siegfried Lehrl strongly encourages daily learning because an absence of study may mean that the student will resume work at a lower level. However, we appreciate that some parents or students may wish to take an absence from the programme. The business practice within the education sector is notice period of at least one school term. The Absence Policy at Ace Learning Centre requires a written notice at least five weeks in advance.

Tuition fees are payable for a complete calendar month and therefore absence can only be taken for a full calendar month.

It is the policy of Ace Learning Centre that students may not take more than one month of absence in a calendar year. The notice for Absence must be given in writing at least five weeks in advance of the commencement of the month of absence.

During the months of absence, one-half of the monthly tuition fee is payable to cover the overheads and keep your place reserved.

Ace Learning Centre offers an individualised learning program, for remedial as well as extension students. The program enables every student to progress from his/her current level of skills and knowledge, irrespective of the student’s age or school grade. Individualised learning is an excellent complement to group teaching in the school environment. We are confident that our focus on learning and ‘learning from mistakes’ is invariably benefitting students when our procedures have been followed. We shall be happy to discuss how Ace Learning Centre can assist your child should your reason for discontinuation is program or Centre specific. However, we appreciate that some parents or students may wish to discontinue from the programme. The business practice within the education sector is notice period of at least one school term. The following policy requiring a written notice at least five weeks in advance applies for discontinuation at Ace Learning Centre.

Tuition fees are payable for a complete calendar month and therefore discontinuation can only be at the end of a calendar month.  The notice for Discontinuation must be given in writing in the month prior to the month of discontinuation.
