Academics
Curro Academy Savanna City has a high school in De Deur, Vereeniging that accommodates learners from Grade 8 to Grade 12. Our dedicated teachers and well-rounded approach prepare learners for the National Senior Certificate (NSC) examinations at the end of Grade 12. Our controlled class sizes and enhanced curriculum empower learners with 21st-century skills and knowledge to grow into high-performing, self-confident individuals and to reach their personal, educational and eventual-workplace goals.
Senior phase: Grade 8 and Grade 9
In these grades, we guide learners to adjust to a greater workload of higher intensity. With dedicated teachers, our enhanced curriculum approach places great emphasis on problem-solving and individual thinking. Teaching in our controlled class sizes takes place in English, but Afrikaans and isiZulu are offered as additional language options. We implement 21st-century skills in subjects such as Natural Sciences and Technology. As a Curro Academy school, our learners also receive guidance when choosing their elective subjects at the end of Grade 9.
FET phase: Grade 10 and Grade 12
This phase prepares learners for the NSC examinations written at the end of Grade 12. However, through our enhanced curriculum we emphasise a greater world-readiness rather than a purely examination-driven approach. Learners in our controlled class sizes are taught to think innovatively, express their ideas and take charge of their own lives to be valued members of the community. Learners further benefit from having Afrikaans and isiZulu as additional language options, and 21st-century skills are implemented in subjects such as Physical Sciences and Computer Applications Technology (CAT).
A wider subject choice
High school learners can now extend their subject choices beyond what is offered at our school. Learners can choose from a wide range of subjects, and classes will take place during the school day in the form of live lessons with teachers. These subjects can be seen as an extension of our Curro education from which our learners already benefit. Learners remain enrolled at our school, assessments and tests still take place, and the marks reflect on their regular progress reports. Find out which subjects are available, and gain more information about this personalised learning experience.
Our activities
Sports and cultural activities
As a Curro Academy school, we believe that participation in activities plays an important role in promoting health, discipline, self-confidence and community. Therefore, our focused activities are designed to help learners discover their inherent talents, or to broaden their exposure beyond their current reference framework. Some of our activities are aimed at boosting learners’ cognitive abilities, while others provide pure enjoyment. We also offer value-added programmes as part of the school fees that include character-building programmes, career guidance and entrepreneurship skills.
We offer Curro Create programmes
At Curro Academy Savanna City, we also offer Curro Arts Superhero (CAS) as part of the Curro Create initiative. CAS is an internal creative mentorship platform with a grading element, where learners are encouraged to discover, develop and display their inherent creative talents.
