Barkley Online School · Chile
Barkley is a 100% asynchronous online school in Chile for students from grade 1 to grade 12, following the official national curriculum — and built so that every student can learn their own way.
No live classes
No fixed timetable and no Zoom. Every lesson is available on demand, in video and podcast.
Official certification
Students validate each grade through Chile's official Exámenes Libres, administered by the Ministry of Education (MINEDUC).
Opening March 2027
Enrolment is open now. The first school year runs from March to October 2027.
A note on accreditation: in Chile, no fully online school is accredited as a school by the Ministry of Education. The official path is the Exámenes Libres, which the Ministry itself administers. Barkley prepares students for them; it does not administer them or issue the certificate.
Our own technology
Mastery learning is the method used by leading accredited online schools in the United States and the United Kingdom. Barkley applies it to the Chilean national curriculum through four tools we designed ourselves.
Vórtice™
Your whole school year, in one place.
Our own learning platform. Every lesson, assessment, tutor message and family update lives in a single place — no scattered apps.
Umbral™
You move on when you've mastered it.
Mastery learning: the next unit unlocks only after scoring 70% or more on the current one. Students can review and retry as many times as they need.
Brújula™
Your pace, recalculated every week.
A suggested weekly plan anchored to the real date of each student's official exam. If life gets in the way, it recalculates — direction, not pressure.
Together™
You study alone, but you're not alone.
A silent study room where students see others working alongside them. No camera, no chat — just the quiet focus of studying in company.
Every lesson includes
Adaptive Program
The same curriculum, with the entry point each student needs. Barkley's Adaptive Program changes how the platform behaves for each profile — it is not a separate, simplified course. It does not replace professional diagnosis or treatment.
ADHD
Short blocks, a visible agenda and no fixed timetable.
Dyslexia
Text-to-speech, a dyslexia-friendly typeface and audio versions of every lesson.
Autism (ASD)
A predictable routine without classroom overstimulation or forced social interaction.
Motor difficulties
Larger targets and an interface that adapts to how each student moves.
Chronic illness
School that fits around treatments and hospital stays.
Athletes & artists
Training and competitions no longer compete with a school timetable.
Families on the move
The official Chilean curriculum from anywhere in the world.
Adults (18+)
A second chance to finish school, on their own schedule.
Never alone
A human tutor
Every student has an assigned tutor — not a generic support pool — who reviews their work and supports them beyond academics.
IA Barkley
An AI tutor that steps in when a student is genuinely stuck (two failed attempts below 70%) and explains the concept without giving away the answer.
Family Portal
Parents see grades, progress per subject, study days and tutoring sessions in real time — informed, without having to monitor.
A personal advisor
Follows each student's progress across the year and steps in early when something isn't working.
Levels & tuition
Primary (grades 1–8) and secondary (grades 9–12) follow Chile's official curriculum. Adults aged 18+ can finish school through their own programme. The school year runs 8 months, from March to October, when students sit their official exams.
All-inclusive: every subject, video and podcast lessons, an assigned tutor, an advisor and the Family Portal. 15% off when paying the full year.
Philanthropy & partnerships
Many families who need Barkley the most — children with learning differences, chronic illness or no nearby school that works for them — cannot afford it. Your support can open that door from our very first school year.
