PIONEERING SMART LEARNING AT THE ROYAL INSTITUTE SMART ACADEMY

Royal Institute, the pioneer international school in Sri Lanka with a distinguished history of over 50 years in delivering world-class education, introduces Royal Institute Smart Academy (RISA) – a Cambridge online school.

With the official endorsement received from Cambridge Assessment International Education (CAIE) UK, the online school offers a wide range of effective and explicit teaching methods that combine the best of in-classroom study with fresh ideas for dealing with the challenges of the modern world for today’s learners.

Students who thrive on independent learning flourish under our programme in a conducive learning environment that allows them to have plenty of interaction and engagement with teachers and fellow students. The academy enables access to world-class opportunities and networks, and prepares young learners to be successful global citizens.

Whom do we cater to?
Royal Institute Smart Academy offers Cambridge O-Level and A-Level curricula for anyone who wishes to study online. One of the key benefits of online education is that it escapes geographical boundaries. RISA can help you pursue those world renowned Cambridge exams whether you’re a student residing in Sri Lanka or overseas.

Furthermore, students who are preparing for the local A-Level exam, can fast track their studies, and obtain both local and Cambridge qualifications. RISA gives you the opportunity to complete your A-Level exam at a much lighter and faster pace.

If you are someone who wishes to start reading for your dream degree but have not been able to because of a lack of A-Level results, this is the gateway to earn your qualifications without the hassle of attending physical classes. Irrespective of age or geography, RISA welcomes smart learners to make their way through 21st century learning.

Why choose Cambridge qualifications?
Reputed universities and employers across the world accept Cambridge qualifications for its global standards. With its association with CAIE, RISA is a pioneering full-fledged online school with a Sri Lankan base that offers Cambridge qualifications. The flexible, challenging and inspiring curriculum helps students gain the essential skills they need for success at university level, and in their future careers.

Smart parenting with RISA
Parenting in the 21st century has its own set of challenges such as juggling household chores, an office or remote job and helping kids with their schooling. The online education provided at RISA comes as a boon to help parents overcome parenting struggles – especially those with heavy duty jobs such as doctors, nurses, business people and entrepreneurs who simply don’t have the time to help their children with their studies.

RISA is a lifesaver, which provides guidance for children from expert teachers in structuring their daily routine, study timetable and building life skills at home.

As students and parents continue to engage and explore various features of online learning at RISA, they realise that smart learning via a highly interactive platform is more powerful than an offline tuition class. Moreover, the Cambridge courses offered at RISA are the best bet for every household with internet access to upgrade student skills without any additional expenditure.

Chartered architect, interior designer, visiting lecturer at the University of Moratuwa and mother of two children Manjula Kumarihamy says: “The approach of e-learning systems has reorganised and transformed the physical process of education through an innovative method. At the same time, it provides suitable educational resources under the guidance of well-trained teachers, which a child can access virtually at anytime from anywhere with confidence.”

RISA stands out while sitting in
RISA is equipped with a collaboration suite that allows it to maintain a constant relationship between students and their teachers through the Learning Management System (LMS). The microphone and chat features encourage active participation by students during every lesson, and enable them to interact and discuss questions in real time.

Student involvement is expanded through the availability of discussion forums, gamification and easily navigable course material. The LMS adheres to widely accepted e-learning standards and prepares students who are taking the Cambridge O-Level and A-Level exams.

RISA focusses on more than simply delivering the curriculum. The academy creates a platform for direct interaction with students and gives them the opportunity to ask questions both in class and after.

Along with formal academic discipline, educators at RISA are qualified to provide advice and counselling on sensitive issues. Teachers at RISA are equipped with subject matter expertise, pedagogical know-how, and cultural and self-awareness.

Students are also given 24/7 access to course materials and lectures through recorded learning, in addition to virtual classrooms where they can participate in fully interactive lessons, and real world classroom interaction through collaboration.

A relationship focussed approach to online learning
RISA places great emphasis on a relationship driven method of teaching with students being given the opportunity to follow their own methods of learning. Likewise, experienced educators at RISA focus on enhancing their existing skill sets, providing support across different aspects of the study journey, and ensuring the academic performance and wellbeing of students.

Royal Institute steps up with a highly personalised and relationship focussed approach where learning is truly redefined.
