GRADES

National Curriculum Statements (NCS) are followed.

Foundation Phase Grade 0 – Grade 3

In the Foundation Phase there are three Learning Programmes which are Literacy (English, Afrikaans, isi-Zulu), Life Skills and Numeracy. These are the vehicles through which the eight Learning Areas are integrated.

• Language, Literacy, Communication (English / Afrikaans)
• Mathematics
• Natural Sciences / Technology
• Social Sciences / Economic and Management Science
• Life Orientation / Arts & Culture

Senior Phase Grade 7 – Grade 9

As above for Intermediate Phase but with the addition of:

• Economic & Management Sciences
• Technology
• Arts & Culture

.

FET Phase Grade 10 – Grade 12

English; Afrikaans; Maths / Mathematical Literacy and Life Orientation are compulsory.

Learners then need to select one cluster:

• Geography / History
• Science / Life Science
• Business Economics / Accountancy

And then one additional subject: History, Geography, Science, Life Sciences, Accounting or Business Economics.

Subjects offered are determined by the demand of pupils wishing to take the particular subject.

All the learners in the school are assessed on a continuous basis throughout the year and write summative assessments twice a year. The school also hosts a number of professional staff, namely Psychologists, Remedial, Occupational and Speech Therapists. Children are thus able to receive additional support on the school premises during school time. However it needs to be noted that the professional fees are not included in the school fees.
