ATTENDANCE POLICY

BE ON TIME

  • Students should be in the classroom at least 2 minutes before the class starting time with all materials needed for the lesson.
  • The teacher will begin the class right at the start time. If a student is not present, the teacher will wait for the entire time of the class, and the class will be noted as an “unexcused absence” for the student.
  • If class begins late as a result of the student, the class will resume until the end of the scheduled class time.
  • If the teacher is not in the classroom, please contact the administration immediately so that we can address the problem promptly. Should the teacher miss the class without a substitute filling in for them, a make-up lesson will be scheduled within two weeks at the student’s convenience for no additional fee.

ABSENCES (MISSED CLASSES)

  • If a student needs to miss and reschedule a class due to the reasons below, a 1-hour notice to the teacher or the administration is required to avoid being considered “unexcused absence”.
  • Makeup classes can only be made up after the class is missed and it must be rescheduled to take place within 4 weeks of the missed class.
  • A rescheduling request must be made within 2 weeks of the missed class. Cancellation or rescheduling requests can be notified no more than 2 weeks before.
  • There are NO refunds for any type of absence.
EXCUSED ABSENCES

Includes: Illness, Death in Family, Appointment, Work/School Conflict, National Holiday, Technical Issues (internet, Skype, computer issues)
If the administration is notified at least 2 hours prior to class, a lesson may be rescheduled for no additional fee. In case of sudden illness or death in the family, please contact us as soon as possible for cancellation of your class.

Should you have a technical issue at the time of class and are unable to notify us beforehand, please email support as soon as possible so that it can count as an excused absence.

UNEXCUSED ABSENCES
  • Any type of absence that is not listed in the “Excused Absence” policy. This includes an un-notified absence from class and/or notification of non-emergency absence less than 2 hours before class time.
  • In case of unexcused absence, there will be no refund or makeup for that class.
OTHER POLICIES
  • If a class is cancelled due to a teacher’s absence for any reason, a make-up lesson will be scheduled for no additional fee. There are no refunds for missed classes.
  • For Excused Absences and Teacher Absences, rescheduling makeup lessons must be arranged within 2 weeks after the missed class and must be scheduled to take place within 4 weeks following the missed class.
  • If the student misses the makeup session, there is no free makeup lesson or refund.
  • Substitute Teachers: in most instances, the administration may decide to delegate a substitute to teach for a missed lesson. The substitute will use the teacher’s same classroom and teach the class according to the institute’s instructions for that day.
  • Substitute teachers are used for all courses except the Ijaazah Program.
  • Although we try to keep this at a minimum, in some instances, a permanent change in teacher may occur.

PAYMENTS AND BILLING

Payment is due immediately and the designated account will be charged automatically at the beginning of every “study month”.

  • In case of payment failure, the student will receive a reminder. If the payment is still unpaid a week after the invoice date, the student’s classes will be suspended until the payment has been received. Once the payment has been received, classes will restart.
  • If a student is unable to make a payment on time in a timely manner, he/she should immediately contact us by clicking on Contact Us or email us at [email protected] immediately to make arrangements.
  • We do not store credit card details nor do we share customer details with any 3rd parties. Your details will only be stored by either PayPal or the Merchant Bank which processes your Credit or Debit card payments.
Automatic Payments (Monthly Subscription)
Your Continuous Payment Authority (CPA)
  1. An ‘Automatic Payment’ is a payment, through the Payment Method you have chosen, that we will automatically charge directly to your nominated Card (‘Nominated Payment Source’) on a regular basis in agreed upon amounts as outlined in your Payment Schedule under a continuous payment authority or “CPA”. You will have the option to select a preferred Payment Method and Nominated Payment Source when your Bonyan Academy billing account is being created. You can update or change your preferred Nominated Payment Source or Payment Method at any time via your Bonyan Academy billing account or by emailing [email protected].
  2. Subject to the other terms of this Agreement, you hereby expressly authorize Bonyan Academy to deduct Automatic Payment amounts from your Nominated Payment Source and any other Payment Method listed on your Bonyan Academy billing account for the amounts and on those scheduled dates set out in your Payment Schedule using the CPA. You acknowledge that you are giving us the ability to collect or reverse variable payment amounts from or to your Nominated Payment Source, in accordance with your Payment Schedule and the terms of this Agreement.
  3. You can cancel your subscription (or CPA) at any time by contacting your bank directly in which case we’ll no longer be entitled to take payment under the CPA. If you do cancel a CPA, you’ll still owe us the remaining balance of your payments and you’ll need to make your repayments by an alternative method.
  4. You are responsible for ensuring that you have sufficient funds in your Nominated Payment Source available to make Automatic Payments on the dates specified in your Payment Schedule. You are liable for any fees or charges imposed by your Nominated Payment Source, except to the extent that such fees or charges arise as a result of our error or system failure. If any fees or charges are imposed as a result of our error or system failure, please provide us with a copy of the relevant records, and we will reimburse you for the relevant fees or charges.
  5. If an Automatic Payment fails (for example, if your Nominated Payment Source is a credit or debit card which has expired), we may take payment from another Payment Method listed on your Bonyan Academy Billing Account and we may make up to multiple attempts on each such Payment Method. If our attempts to take payment fail for 7 days, all classes will be put on hold.

You authorize us to make payment of any amount that you owe us by:

  • Debiting your Nominated Payment Source at a later time or date;
  • Debiting any other Card which you have provided details of;
  • Offsetting the payment amount against any amounts we may owe to you; or
  • Any other legal means.

Class Recordings

(A) Classes that take place through the Zoom platform are automatically recorded by Bonyan Academy (“Class Recordings”). We value student and Teacher privacy, and our use of Class Recordings is extremely limited.

Specifically, Class Recordings are made available only to the Quality team to provide feedback to Teachers, to improve our Services, for customer support, and for compliance purposes. Bonyan Academy™ retains Class Recordings for 90 days after the date of the applicable Class, subject to our Privacy Policy, after which they are deleted. Notwithstanding the foregoing, Bonyan Academy may also delete Class Recordings earlier than 90 days under the following circumstances: (a) upon the request of a Parent for the deletion of their child’s personally identifiable information, or (b) upon the reasonable determination of Bonyan Academy that a Class Recording should be removed to protect the privacy of certain Users or because of violations of these Terms of Use.

We will not use Class Recordings containing images of you (or your children) for promotional or any other purposes without your express written consent.

(B) Parents, students, and Teachers are NOT allowed to record classes – audio or video – to protect the privacy of others.
