Curro Jewel City has a high school in the Maboneng Precinct of the City and Suburban suburb. We provide an excellent Curro Digital education to learners from Grade 7 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 Grade 7 learners follow Curro Online's approach in a fully equipped learning space, while learners from Grade 8 enjoy the Curro DigiEd approach to learning. Get an overview of everything we can offer you on our fact sheet. 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, while preparing them for the NSC exams in Grade 12. 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. This teaches them to take charge of their lives, and to make connections between pieces of knowledge – which further develops critical-thinking and problem-solving skills. As part of the excellent Curro education, we have a great focus on Mathematics, Science, and Robotics. 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, our learners enjoy preference when applying to any school in the group. High schools in the group within a 30-minute drive include Curro Academy Parkdene, Curro Academy Wilgeheuwel, Curro Aurora, Curro Edenvale, Curro Rivonia, Curro Victory Park, The King's School Linbro Park, and Waterstone College. Learners can also easily transfer to Curro Online, which is a fully online school where your chid can learn from home. Our classrooms take a slightly more open-plan approach so that teachers can easily move between learners and help them exactly where they need. To this end, we control the number of learners per class. This is just one of the ways that we create an environment where your child will enjoy what they learn and love coming to school. Our longer school hours accommodate the schedules of working parents and prepare learners for the long hours at the workplace. Learners receive little to no 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. One part of the excellent Curro 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. As part of the Curro school group, our focused variety of activities, such as visual arts and various non-competitive ball sports, are tailored to the interests of learners in our area. Your child is sure to find something that will pique their interest. See which activities we can offer you on our fact sheet.
