Online School & Homeschool in Jounieh & Mount Lebanon

Online school and international curriculum in Jounieh

For Jounieh, Keserwan and Mount Lebanon families — commuting to Beirut for work without commuting the children too.

Live online Cambridge IGCSE, Cambridge A-Level, Pearson Edexcel International, IB Diploma Programme, and American Curriculum with Advanced Placement (AP) for Jounieh and Mount Lebanon families. The coastal and mountain belt running north from the capital through Jounieh, Keserwan and the surrounding villages is one of the densest residential and commercial corridors in the country, with several long-established schools and universities in reach and a great many households commuting into Beirut daily. For families already making that journey, the question is usually whether the children need to make it too. Live delivery answers that, and Lebanon sits within an hour of our teaching clock.

Challenges Jounieh & Mount Lebanon families face

Households already commuting to Beirut daily for work.
Mountain villages spread well above the coastal corridor.
Competitive places at the strongest schools in the belt.
We could not verify Lebanon's position on parental home education.
Time zone: one hour behind us in winter and exactly level in summer.

Why Jounieh & Mount Lebanon families choose Smartious

No second commute: Families already driving into Beirut rarely want to add a school run in the other direction. Live delivery removes it for the child entirely.
Reaches the mountain villages: Broummana, Bikfaya and the Keserwan villages get identical live teaching without descending to the coast.
The set your school cannot staff: Further Mathematics or a third science for four pupils is unviable on one timetable and routine in a live group drawn from several countries.
Almost no timezone at all: One hour behind in winter, level in summer.
French kept as an examined subject: Cambridge French alongside the English-medium core, which suits this belt's strong francophone tradition.

The national picture applies in Mount Lebanon: education is compulsory and administered by MEHE, private schools operate under ministry licensing, and we could not verify Lebanon's position on parental home education against a primary instrument. Confirm with MEHE directly. Smartious is not a MEHE-licensed school, issues no Lebanese qualification and does not teach toward the Lebanese Baccalaureate. Our arrangement is live international teaching alongside a Lebanese school enrolment — which in this belt is frequently a supplementary subject or two rather than a full programme, and we would rather build what a family actually needs.

Smartious delivers to Mount Lebanon families online; the live programme is complete without in-person supplementation.

Live online via Smartious LMS, effectively across our whole teaching day given the near-zero offset, with every session recorded.

Common questions from Jounieh & Mount Lebanon families

We commute to Beirut for work — does that shape the decision?

It usually does. Families already making that journey rarely want to add a school run, and live delivery removes it for the child while keeping an internationally examined track.

We live in a mountain village — does that work?

Identically. Broummana, Bikfaya and the Keserwan villages get the same live teaching, with examination travel a few times a year.
