WHY CHOOSE ASSUMPTION CONVENT SCHOOL?

WE CREATE LEADERS

A small school with small classes

We have fewer than 600 pupils and classes are seldom larger than 25, despite the pressure of waiting lists.

Uncompromising academic excellence

We have produced a 100% pass in matric examinations, with numerous distinctions, for years. Most of our matriculants go on to tertiary studies, and many excel. See what some of our past pupils have achieved.

Proficient, dedicated staff

Thanks to our stable, caring environment, our teachers typically stay on for many years. Several staff members have completed Masters' degrees or additional educational qualifications.

The IEB matriculation: internationally renowned

We apply the high quality standards of the IEB throughout the curriculum.

Optimum career opportunities

Because subject options can map out careers, we offer the widest range possible. We give extra assistance in mathematics as it is essential to many tertiary study courses.

Single-sex education

Research shows that monastic schools generally outperform co-educational schools.

An holistic education

In addition to rigorous academic study and numerous sporting and cultural activities, we offer a solid grounding in Christian values, helping our pupils reach their full potential and become caring citizens.

At the cutting edge of curriculum development

We stay fully informed of educational developments in South Africa and internationally through the Catholic Schools Board, the Independent Schools' Association of Southern Africa and other educational bodies.

Ever-improving facilities

At Assumption Convent, we continually upgrade our classrooms, equipment and grounds.

Affordable, quality education

Our educational standards compare favourably with those of the best private schools, yet our fees are much lower and we offer FREE mathematics, English and Afrikaans extra lessons. Other subjects free as well but by arrangements with teachers.
