SchoolConex

What SchoolConex does

SchoolConex is a Toronto-based edtech company that provides a white-label, Moodle-based Learning Management System and a library of 40+ Ministry-inspected Ontario Secondary School Diploma (OSSD) courses for Grades 9-12 to private online high schools, primarily in Ontario. Each course contains over 110 hours of interactive content, recorded lectures from Ontario Certified Teachers, consolidation videos, and assessments, and the platform supports unlimited teacher and student users, student course completion tracking, messaging boards, interactive quizzes and labs, a KICA strand gradebook, question banks, and detailed user action logs. The platform is delivered as a fully brandable white-label solution, allowing partner schools to operate remote schools without building their own infrastructure. Supporting services include access to a network of 45+ Ontario Certified Teachers for facilitation, grading, tutoring, and consulting; GradeBook and OnSIS management; turnkey website and payment processing automation; and enrollment support through a global agent network of 150+ agents across China, Vietnam, Japan, Jordan, Saudi Arabia, South America, and Europe.

The business model is a tiered recurring subscription, with three school packages: Starter (5-10 courses, online platform, registration support), Established (10-40 courses, teacher facilitation, grading solutions), and Growth (full access plus marketing support). Three Moodle hosting tiers run from Basic ($195/month, 120GB SSD, 5 courses) to Pro ($500/month, 300GB SSD, 40+ courses) to Unlimited (custom pricing with marketing services). Additional recurring revenue comes from per-student facilitation fees and GradeBook/OnSIS administration packages tiered by active student count. Go-to-market is sales-led via demo requests, supplemented by a referral channel of 150+ global agents targeting international students and a self-service website for hosting tier purchases.

The company is privately held, has 1-10 employees, operates from Toronto, and holds a Certified Moodle Partner designation (2021 APAC Service Provider of the Year from Moodle HQ), with infrastructure powered by Google Cloud. Disclosed scale metrics include 270+ students enrolled, 1,250+ student credits processed, 240+ schools managed through hosting, and 99.9% uptime. The only disclosed funding is a $100,000 seed round from Sunhope Capital in August 2022, and no parent company, institutional backing, or executive leadership information is publicly available in the source data.
