A small South African company. Questions are based on National Senior Certificate papers set by the Department of Basic Education; we are not affiliated with or endorsed by the Department.

### Is my child’s data safe?

We keep their answers and marks to help them practise. We never sell data or show ads. You can ask us to delete everything.

### Does it replace a tutor?

No. It gives fast, honest marking on lots of practice, which a tutor can then build on.
