CURRICULUM

ENCS is an English combined school with grades from Preschool to Grade 12 and is registered with the Limpopo Department of Education and is a member of the Association of Christian Schools International (ACSI) and UMALUSI accredited.

Christ-centred Education takes place. Our educators are trained and encouraged how to teach with Christ in the Centre as the departure point of every curriculum.  

Grades 9 – 12 write IEB exams and are accepted at any University. Government ANA exams are also written in grades 3, 6, and 9.

Aim:

We aim to develop the potential of each learner by setting an example with our educators, who must have a living curriculum that the learners can follow. Our high school learners write the Independent Examination Board (IEB) examinations.

The core government curriculum is followed and enriched with other curricula. Well-qualified teachers receive further training from the Christ-centred perspective. 

Our pupils per classroom are kept to a minimum so that learners will get intensive individual attention to their school work. This ensures that each student’s potential is discovered and developed.
