Curro Delft High School | Cape Town

About the school
Curro Delft is a high school in Cape Town that provides the excellent Curro education to learners from Grade 8 to Grade 12. Our classrooms take a slight open-plan approach so that teachers can easily move between learners and help exactly where they need, and we carefully limit the number of learners to ensure they get personal attention. Our longer school hours mimic a full day at work, complete with a lunch hour, and our learners get little to no homework, depending on the need for revision.
Hear it from our learners:
We take a whole new approach of teaching. At traditional schools, teachers stand in front of the class and teach from a prescribed textbook. They write on whiteboards, answer questions, and hand out homework to do after school. We teach by having our learners study textbooks, and watch videos, simulations, and tutorials as many times as they need to understand what they’re learning (it’s a digital education). When learners have questions, the teacher comes to them and explains everything they want to know, and they can ask as many questions as they need to. This means that each learner gets individual help exactly where they need, the teachers monitor each learner’s progress, and they get used to take charge of their own learning and, later on, their lives.

We are committed to providing learners with an excellent education. That is why our approach encourages learners to take charge of their own learning by studying textbooks accompanied by videos, simulations, and tutorials as many times as they need to understand what they’re learning. When they have questions, the teacher comes to them and spends individual time until they feel ready to continue.
This approach allows our high school learners to explore the learning material beyond just the textbook. Regular assessments and tests still take place, but it’s important to us that learners can use their intellectual abilities to make the material real to them in some way.
As part of the excellent Curro DigiEd education, we have a great focus on Mathematics and Science. The knowledge and tangible skills taught by these subjects are in high demand in the future workplace, which gives our learners a head start in their dreams, whichever these might be.
As part of the Curro school group, learners enjoy preference when applying to us from any school in the group. Nearby schools include Curro Sandown, Curro Century City, and Curro Foreshore (another DigiEd school). Learners can also easily transfer to Curro Online, which is a fully online school where your chid can learn from home.
Our longer school hours accommodate the schedules of working parents and prepare learners for the long hours at the workplace. Learners in Grades 8 and 9 receive little to no homework, while learners in Grades 10 to 12 receive homework mostly for revision and to cement their understanding of the learning material. We also have early drop-off times and learners are kept safe at school until well after office hours. This means that home time is family time.
Our Saturday support programmes offer extra classes for subjects with which they struggle and learners may also use this time and space to work on their projects or study in groups. These programmes are not compulsory and are included in our school fees. On these days, learners would still have access to resources required for digital learning in class.
One part of the excellent Curro DigiEd education, is that academics are balanced with sports and cultural activities. Participation in activities promote team-awareness, collaboration, and self-confidence. Activities such as art and choir help learners develop the skills to gather their thoughts and express themselves in creative ways. Our focused variety of activities, such as droning and dancing, are tailored to the interests of learners in our area. Your child is sure to find something that will pique their interest.

Facilities
As part of the Curro DigiEd education, our classrooms take a slight open-plan approach so that teachers can easily move between learners. The learning space is designed to accommodate digital learning and to encourage learners to take charge of their own learning pace. When they need help, teachers can spend individual time with them to help exactly where they need.
Also, each learner has their own computer to access digital learning material, such as tutorials, videos and simulations. By moving away from traditional classroom setups to this flexible learning space, our learners can work individually or in teams.
Our facilities include the following:
Open-plan classrooms that promote interaction between teachers and learners.
Comfortable seating areas for group work and collaboration.
AstroTurf field for recreation time
