One school, three ways to learn.
Learn at the cottage, live online from anywhere in the world, or a mix of both, with the same teachers throughout. Lesson times show in your own time zone, and parents see every piece of work as it happens.

Choose the mode, keep the teachers.
- In person
- Small groups at the cottage in Nairobi, with nature and outdoor learning woven into the week.
- Online
- Live lessons on Google Meet from anywhere in the world, in groups of no more than 6. Work, marks and reports in Waridi Classroom.
- Hybrid
- Some days at the cottage and some at home, on one timetable. Ideal for families who travel or live outside Nairobi.
Families can switch modes between terms, or when life changes, without changing teachers.
What makes us truly different.
Large online schools teach thousands of children to a fixed timetable. Free classroom apps only email parents a summary. Waridi does neither.
- 01
Parents see everything.
Every assignment, mark and teacher’s comment as it happens, plus termly reports and invoices, in your own parent login. Not a weekly email summary.
- 02
Teachers you can meet.
Live lessons with the same teachers in person, online or hybrid. Your child can move between them when life changes, and the cottage in Nairobi is always there.
- 03
Small groups, never more than 6.
Live groups are capped at 6 learners, so every child is seen, heard and known by name. One-to-one tuition is always available.
- 04
Easy for young children.
Learners sign in with a simple username we give them. No email address or Google account needed.
- 05
Clear fees, paid once a term.
Every fee is published. Tuition is paid before each term starts, and anything extra, such as exam entries, is listed in advance. No surprise charges.
- 06
Many curricula, one school.
Cambridge and British, IPC and IMYC, American and IB support under one roof, with a Christian ethos that welcomes every family.
A week, step by step.
One button to join the lesson.
The Today page shows the next live lesson with a single Join button, then the rest of the day. Times are shown in your own time zone, wherever you are.
Homework from a phone camera.
Learners type an answer, or photograph handwritten work and hand it in. No more homework lost in WhatsApp threads.
Marked work comes back with comments.
Teachers return every piece of work with a score and a written comment, and link it to the syllabus objectives it covers, so learners know exactly what to do next.
You see what the teacher sees.
Your own login shows each child’s classes, attendance, what is handed in and what is missing, and every mark and comment. You are told in the app the moment your child is marked absent or late, and a summary of the week arrives every Friday.
One place, three views.
- Learners
- A username and password from Waridi Cottage. No email address needed, so younger children can sign in too.
- Parents
- Your email address. One account covers all your children, with their schoolwork, attendance, reports, meetings and payments.
- Teachers
- Post work linked to syllabus objectives, take the register, mark work, offer meeting times and write termly reports.
Try us, without the risk.
Start with a free trial lesson. Then, if within the first two weeks of your child’s first term you feel Waridi is not right for them, tell us. We will first offer to change the group, teacher or way of learning, and if you still wish to leave, we refund that term’s tuition for the weeks not yet taught.
Simple to set up.
- A laptop or tablet with a camera and microphone
- Headphones, and a quiet place to work
- An internet connection that can handle a video call
- A phone camera is enough for handing in written work
Built for children.
- Accounts are created by Waridi Cottage, never by strangers
- Learners sign in with a username: no email or social account
- No private messages between teachers and children
- Only your child’s teachers, you and Waridi’s administrators can see their work
Start learning with Waridi, wherever you are.
Register for online or hybrid learning, or book a trial lesson first. We will help you choose the right programme and timetable.
