Questions from schools

What teachers ask us.

Does it cost the school anything?

No. TRY is free for learners. Each learner signs up on their own phone.

Which subjects and grades?

Practice tests and TRY papers: Mathematics, Mathematical Literacy, Technical Mathematics, Physical Sciences, Technical Sciences and Accounting. Past papers, study guides and textbooks cover many more CAPS subjects, and career planning is for every learner from Grade 8 to 12.

Is there a teacher dashboard?

Not yet — it’s coming: class tests and exam papers with memos in one click, and your class’s weak spots at a glance. Contact us for early access.

Can TRY come to our school?

Ask us on the contact page. We would love to show your learners how TRY works.
