OUR PROGRAMME IN SUMMARY

In partnership with schools, we teach students about real-world skills for the job market, business start-up and operations, and money management. Students build-up their CVs from elementary up to secondary school working for different organisations and simultaneously setting up their own business and managing the same. They have their own bank accounts and learn how to save, invest, spend and manage their earnings. Handholding occurs throughout the program through online video taught on everything from money management skills to entrepreneurial skills earning them a range of business school certificates to add to their CVs. By the time a child is done with our program, they have a CV that looks more impressive than some adults with 10 years of work experience.

SCHOOL PARTNERSHIPS

Schools with interest in introducing their children to the skills mentioned above sign-up with us with the combined aim of delivering our educational and entertaining experiences to their community of children. After a term, such schools are certified as Business Schools under the SHIZZLE/BIZ KID$ program. Such schools are recognised in several continents as places for the learning of entrepreneurial, job and money management skills.

REAL-WORLD LEARNING

We have the privilege of working with some industry-leading brands that help bring our pre-teen/teen-sized community to life! Working with our exciting partners brings realism to our activities and creates wholly immersive experiences for the students. A key component of the Program experience is the integration of real-world organizations to represent the business and jobs. An airline knows best how to train pilots and cabin crew. A bank knows best how to teach children about saving and investing. The brands make the experiences possible and, in turn, empower, inspire and support learning for students. This is an immersive and interactive experience, unmatched by any other location or online-based learning and entertainment platforms.

The Program's current Industry Partners include more than sixteen (16) of our own brands. Industry Partners vary in industry sector and size represent a mix of private corporations, governmental institutions, and non-profit organizations.

Introduce your children to new ways of learning in a SAFE interactive ONLINE COMMUNITY full of activities about the real world

For the lessons, you can’t teach

Learning is always more effective when kids are enjoying themselves, and our program is packed wall-to-wall with excitement. Role-play activities teach your students about careers, money management, and life outside of school in a way that perfectly complements your curriculum.

FOR SCHOOLS

Our Program is an educational environment to help teachers facilitate the learning process, develop new educational approaches, and boost the child’s interest in gaining new knowledge.

Approved by LEADING SCHOOLS

With our Program, children develop cross-curricular skills, highly valued by the new generation of educational standards.

security

Our social media platform is a private member community hence access is restricted and we have moderators to ensure only members of the schools that subscribe to the program have access to it. We have our own moderators to enforce rules for safe conduct by members, and we also give schools five (5) FREE accounts for teachers to monitor the activities of members of their school on the platform. Members are identifiable by their school on their accounts and thus our moderators can report activities to the relevant teachers for action if necessary. Our moderators can remove members if necessary if they breach any of the program rules of behavior and conduct.

Online banking platform has secure authentication, password management, two-factor authentication, touch ID, and pins.

We take our personal data privacy policy very seriously and thus keep all data of members securely and do not use such data without gaining written authorisation from schools.

We do not permit pornography, adult content or nudity. To clarify what we define as adult content, nudity or pornography, networks that contain the following would clearly NOT be allowed:

Depictions or images of sexual acts or implied sexual activity
Nudity (exposed or see-through coverage of areas typically covered by a bathing suit or underwear)
Graphic photos or videos
Fetishes

Recommendations for teachers

Let children decide

On our Program, children make their own decisions. It is not only our motto but a part of our educational program. Making decisions is a necessary skill, which is hard to develop at school.

Children should be allowed to make their own choice, even if they seem to act illogically and ineffectively. For instance, a child might spend a lot of time taking part in the same job activity. If a teacher or a parent intervenes and decides what job activities a child should take part in, his or her behavioral strategy will not change. Children should be free to make their own choice to develop their planning and goal-setting skills.

Classroom work

Job or business activities are done during the children’s private time, however, we have extended the program to include activities that can be incorporated into the classroom. We would be glad to walk you through this aspect of the program.

Prices

Minimum of one hundred (100) accounts (i.e. child) per school at eight US Dollars ($8) per month per account.

Every school account includes CONNECT, AMIGO, SHIZZLE, STATERS ONLINE AND MOBILE BANKING, STATERS DEBIT CARD, STATERS ATM, and HANGOUT. We also include five (5) FREE accounts for teachers and administrators of each school to act as moderators.
