Meridian Cosmo City High School | Randburg

Quality High School Education in Cosmo City

Meridian Cosmo City High School, located in the bustling heart of Cosmo City, Roodepoort, provides a superior educational foundation for learners from Grade 8 to Grade 12. Managed by Curro as part of a joint venture with Old Mutual and the Public Investment Corporation, we offer the renowned Curro education model. We limit our class sizes to ensure that every learner receives personal attention, and teaching takes place in English. Our goal is to give your child a head start in reaching their dreams, whatever they may be.

Beyond the Textbook: Project-Based Learning

We are committed to providing an education that goes deeper than rote memorization. While we adhere to the national CAPS curriculum and prepare learners for the NSC exams in Grade 12, our teaching approach is based on project-based learning and self-discovery. Through research, experiments, and assignments, learners explore material beyond the textbook. This method fosters critical thinking, problem-solving, and the ability to connect knowledge to the real world.

Structured for Success

The Senior Phase (Grades 8 and 9):
We guide Grade 8 learners as they adjust to the higher intensity of high school. By keeping classes small, we provide individual support exactly where it is needed. We also offer expert guidance on subject choices at the end of Grade 9.

The FET Phase (Grades 10 to 12):
Our focus shifts to preparing learners for the NSC exams. However, we go further by applying work to real-life situations to ensure deep understanding. To prepare for a digital future, learners also have Robotics as a subject in Grade 12.

Language Options:
While English is the language of learning and teaching, we celebrate our diverse community by offering Afrikaans and Sepedi as additional language options.

Extended Subject Choices

We understand that every learner has a unique career path. Through our personalized learning offering, learners can choose elective subjects beyond those physically offered at the school. These subjects are presented digitally and live by expert Curro teachers during the school day, allowing your child to pursue niche interests while still writing the NSC exam for those subjects.

A Balanced Education

At Meridian Cosmo City, we believe that academic success is best achieved when balanced with sports and cultural activities. Participation in these extra-curriculars promotes team awareness, collaboration, and self-confidence. Our activities are tailored to the interests of our community and include modern options such as eSports and photography.

Joining our family connects you to a wider network of excellence. Learners enjoy preferential placement when applying from other Curro schools, including nearby Curro Aurora, Curro Victory Park, and Northriding College. Additionally, our Curro Alumni network ensures that connections made here last a lifetime, offering benefits and networking opportunities long after matriculation.

Sports and Cultural Facilities

We are committed to providing a balanced education that nurtures the whole child. Our focused variety of sports and cultural activities are hosted on well-maintained courts and fields, ensuring that learners have the space and resources to develop teamwork, resilience, and physical well-being.

Our activity facilities include:

• Athletics, rugby, and soccer fields
• Two netball courts
• A tennis court

Holistic Learner Support

We understand that every child learns and grows differently. To ensure no learner is left behind, our educational psychologist plays a vital role in monitoring how learners process emotional, social, and cognitive stimuli. By analyzing these factors, we can identify and address any learning, social, or behavioural concerns that might impede your child’s progress. Please contact us for more information on how this service can support your child.
