Admissions
How to join LifeHub
We admit families slowly and carefully. The process below is designed as much for you to get to know us as for us to get to know your child.
The process
Five steps, at your pace
-
Get in touch
Send us a message on WhatsApp, call us, or fill in the enquiry form. Tell us a little about your child and what brought you here. There is no form-filling marathon at this stage.
-
A conversation
We’ll arrange a phone call to understand what you’re looking for and answer your questions honestly. This is usually where most parents work out whether LifeHub is the kind of place they want for their family.
-
Visit us
Come and spend time in the community during a normal working morning. Not a polished open day — an ordinary one. Bring your child. Watch what happens when nobody is performing for you.
-
Trial days
Your child spends a few days with us so that both they and we can see how it feels. Children usually tell you the truth about a place far faster than adults can.
-
Decide together
We’ll talk again about what we each observed, and decide together whether this is the right fit. Sometimes the honest answer is no, and we would rather say so early than later.
Practical details
Ages and places
Who we take
We welcome children from age 2 through to the teenage years, grouped by readiness and developmental need rather than by grade.
Children join us at every stage — some from birth into homeschooling, many others moving across from conventional schools. Both are normal here.
Places
We keep the community deliberately small so that every child is genuinely known by the adults around them.
This means places are limited and we cannot always take a child immediately. If we are full, we will tell you plainly rather than leaving you waiting.
Certification & future readiness
Academic pathways
Many parents wonder how children in a self-directed learning environment pursue higher education. The first thing to understand is that how a child learns and how a child is certified are two separate decisions.
At LifeHub, we focus on creating an environment where children can develop curiosity, responsibility, strong academic foundations and a love for learning. The certification pathway is chosen by each family based on their child’s goals and circumstances.
Most families choose this
NIOS — National Institute of Open Schooling
A government-recognised board under the Ministry of Education. NIOS certificates for Class 10 and Class 12 are accepted for university admissions, competitive examinations and employment opportunities across India. Its flexibility makes it a natural fit for learners following a personalised educational journey.
For universities abroad
International pathways
Some families choose international qualifications such as Cambridge IGCSE and A Levels through approved private candidate centres. These pathways can provide access to universities around the world, though they typically involve higher costs and a more structured examination route.
The family’s role
LifeHub is a learning community, not an examination board.
Parents remain responsible for registering their child with the certification pathway they choose and for completing any required administrative processes. We are happy to share information, answer questions and guide families through the available options, but the final decisions and registrations remain with the family.
Our commitment
Our goal is not simply to help children earn a certificate. Our goal is to help them become capable, confident and self-directed learners who are prepared for the opportunities and challenges that lie ahead.
The certificate matters. The person they are becoming matters even more.
Next step
Still deciding? Come and look.
You will learn more in one morning here than in any amount of reading. Arrange a visit and see an ordinary day for yourself.
