IVA Global School: Taking Virtual Learning to the Next Level

The meeting point between timeless education principles and next-generation learning, IVA Global School in South Africa is the first virtual 3D school in the world. Inviting its students to take a leap into the future, the experiences they have in this exciting and innovative setting are unlike anything provided by a traditional school, all whilst giving children all of the tools they need to excel academically. Due to its highly unique nature and commitment to remarkable outcomes, we have named IVA Global School the Most Outstanding Online Education Provider 2025 – South Africa.

Virtual schooling, although still a very novel concept, has already positioned itself as offering a host of unique benefits for students. All of these and more are currently being explored by IVA Global School, a first-of-its-kind environment that brings together the best of what the world of education has to offer. From reception-age children to A-level students, IVA Global offers a unique curriculum that seamlessly blends South African and British examinations and qualifications. The result is a premium, meaningful adventure through education.

Unlike distance learning, which is where students are given work to complete alone and only reach out if they run into a problem, online schooling such as that offered by IVA Global sees pupils engage with teachers in live, interactive sessions as part of a structured timetable. As with a traditional school, IVA Global sees students in the classroom every weekday morning at 8am, where they will remain until the end of the school day. Tardiness or absence is not tolerated, with parents being swiftly informed in instances of both.

Leveraging the comprehensive Microsoft Teams platform for both the lessons themselves as well as general communication, pupils and teaching staff interact in the form of avatars, with the student-teacher relationship being as robust and clearly defined here as it is would be in a physical school. Should children need any additional support during the lessons or at any time across the school day, they are free to ask using the chat feature. All of the sessions are also recorded, making it possible for students to go back for any missed information.

“IVA Global focuses predominantly on building relationships with students during our live online lessons. We chose this model as it is much better than leaving students with a mountain of content that they need to get through on their own.”

IVA Global boasts students from all around the world as a result of its steadfast commitment to both their education and their futures, and this is why the institution prioritises aligning its curriculum with the best standards worldwide. The flexibility of this curriculum also means it is possible for students at a high school level to choose from a range of options when it comes to their post-schooling years. When they get to year 10, the three pathways available to them are British GCSE and A-Levels, South Africa IEB (Independent Examinations Board), or, if they are international students, an International Secondary Certificate.

It is not only through this unprecedented choice that the students of IVA Global are afforded the best possible education for their personal needs however, with this being explored further through IVA’s encompassing five-pillar system. Spanning learning, socialising, the mind and body, a series of core values, and a commitment to life beyond school, these cornerstones play a huge part in the holistic experience IVA Global strives to deliver to every student, and they can be felt across every element of its schooling on a daily basis.

Be it holding talent shows, awards ceremonies, assemblies, or parent meetings in its 1000-seat virtual auditorium; offering e-sports in the form of a weekly lesson for year 4 to year 9 pupils; delivering the Isle of IVA, a virtual student hang out where society meetings are held; or even seeing that the mental and physical health needs of children are prioritised through weekly sessions, it is these efforts that make all the difference for pupils at IVA Global.

Founded in 2020, the same year the world was forced to embrace digital technology more openly for work and schooling as a result of the COVID-19 pandemic, this online institution has spent the last five years connecting students passionate about learning with teachers keen on sharing their knowledge and nurturing bright futures. All of the teachers at IVA Global are selected as a result of their proven capabilities, with these goal-oriented individuals going way beyond what is expected of them to support students at every stage of development.

At the helm of IVA Global’s quality staffing team is John Luis, who is also the institution’s founder and CEO. With prior experience taking him from managing academics at AdvTech Schools to serving as senior deputy head at the Oprah Winfrey Leadership Academy for Girls and the head at Reddam House Bedfordview, John is more than qualified to lead IVA Global to a world-class standard. Alongside these previous roles, John also works for IEB as a maths examiner and is a member of Fedisa Fashion School’s academic council.

Underpinning the strength of IVA Global’s approach to teaching is its commitment to strong communication with parents, with the five report cards children are provided with every year allowing their progress to be tracked and their development better understood. Outstanding feedback has subsequently been received by parents across the board, including Babette, who said: “My son started at IVA this year with a terrible report card from his previous online school. John Luis gave him a chance to prove himself and he managed to up his marks by 20 to 30% in all his subjects in the first assessment cycle.”

Delivering a holistic experience that goes beyond tremendous academic results, IVA Global School is leading an international transformation by delivering the future of education in the present. Pupils not only enjoy the time they spend here, they also become more independent, focused, and happy. All of this leads to a better future, a deeper understanding of the world around them, and a unique advantage in the increasingly digital world we live in for these students – something that IVA Global prides itself on continuing to offer.

Represented by pupils from more than 26 countries worldwide, IVA Global School is truly an international institution, in terms of its students, its curriculum, and its standing in this sphere. Distinctive and highly exceptional in everything from its teaching methods to the emphasis it places on a child’s physical and mental wellbeing, it is our pleasure to recognise IVA Global School as the Most Outstanding Online Education Provider 2025 – South Africa.
