Clear teaching for serious students.
Northbridge Academy runs classes, courses and workshops in Economics, Business Studies and Artificial Intelligence. We work with high school learners in Grades 8 to 12, and with students and adults studying at a higher level.

What we teach
Three subjects, taught properly.
We keep our list short on purpose, so every subject gets the attention it deserves. More subjects will be added over time.
Business Studies
How businesses are started, run and grown. Learners practise the essay and case study skills that make the biggest difference to their marks.
