Academic Matters

 

Nursery School

The Nursery school follows a theme-based curriculum where the children learn through play and formal learning activities. Their day is divided into ring times, physical activities, creative activities, educational games, work stations, and formal work.
The ultimate goal is to ensure that each learner develops the skills and maturity to progress to formal learning.

Primary and High School
The Academy uses the National Curriculum Statement called CAPS as its guideline. We will be transitioning to IEB in 2025 from grade 1 to grade 9.  Thereafter, we will introduce IEB to the FET phase one year at a time.  The current grade 10- 12 will continue with NSC until 2028.

We do not follow a Christian Curriculum, but we teach from a Biblical worldview.

We live in this world, and our children need to know how to answer questions, understand the TRUTH in God’s word, and live for Jesus in any calling and vocation God has placed on their lives, whether it be in business, commerce, education, health or entertainment in any country of this world.

Our children should be a beacon of God’s light!
