WhatsApp-first CAPS/IEB study and teaching support for South African schools

Gamma School helps learners get unstuck after hours, helps educators request and receive adaptable CAPS-aligned packs, and helps organisations run Moodle platforms — in a free controlled pilot with limited spots.

This page shows how we help and how much service we deliver. It does not claim proven learning-outcome gains — our Impact Evidence Factory currently has no supported marks/mastery claims, and we refuse to invent them.

Who we help

  • South African learner photographing homework with a smartphone for WhatsApp study help

    Learners

    After-hours tutoring on WhatsApp — homework photos, voice notes, step-by-step help. Parent/guardian consent if under 18.

  • Educator reviewing CAPS-aligned lesson support on WhatsApp

    Educators

    Lesson plans, worksheets, assessments, memos, and revision drafts — you adapt every pack. Free CAPS resources also on Telegram.

  • Moodle learning platform for South African schools and programmes

    Schools & programmes

    Moodle learning platforms organisations can actually run — discovery, build, support — with practical AI where it reduces repetitive work.

How help works

  1. Homework photo sent for step-by-step WhatsApp help
    Learner

    1. Photo → steps

    Learner sends a homework photo or voice note. Gamma explains in short steps and checks understanding — without doing the work for submission.

  2. CAPS-aligned worksheet and teaching pack illustration
    Educator

    2. Ask → printable pack

    Educator states grade, subject, and topic. Gamma delivers a CAPS-aligned draft or pack. The teacher adapts it for class, ATP, and timetable.

  3. School learning platform discovery and Moodle delivery
    School

    3. Need → Moodle

    Organisation maps learners, courses, and support needs. Gamma configures Moodle, launches cleanly, and stays for support and governance.

Weekly refresh: the ops lead updates the approved anonymised metrics file outside the webroot — the public site never reads learner databases.

South African matric learner revising with past papers — FET is currently Gamma’s strongest curriculum lane

Curriculum depth — readiness, not vanity

We publish estate depth so officials can see preparation — and we stay honest about grade-band strength.

  • FET (Gr 10–12): Strongest — past papers, memos, topic packs, learner tutoring
  • Senior Phase (Gr 7–9): Solid for core subjects
  • Foundation: Useful draft-led outlines from CAPS/DBE — not yet a polished ATP-perfect factory

Safeguards & governance

  • Under-18 consent

    Parent or guardian consent is required for learners under 18. Families stay in the loop.

  • Educator-led drafts

    Teachers adapt every draft. Gamma does not replace educators or write work for submission.

  • Private learner chats

    We do not forward private learner conversation transcripts to school staff.

  • POPIA posture

    WhatsApp pilot data is used to provide help, run the pilot, and improve the service. See our Privacy notice.

  • Human review lanes

    Educator Telegram / WhatsApp resource delivery includes human review in the assistance workflow.

  • Honest readiness

    FET is strongest; Foundation remains more draft-led. We say when something is not ready.

What is not yet proven

  • Causal improvement in marks or mastery (Impact Evidence Factory: no supported public learning-outcome claims yet)
  • That engagement equals learning
  • That a delivered pack was used in class without educator confirmation
  • National open availability — this remains a controlled pilot with limited spots

Learning-outcome evaluation is in progress. For officials who need a private one-pager on evaluation design, contact us — we will not publish fake outcome percentages on this site.
