In today’s world, it can be difficult to find an appropriate school for your child. The current state of public-school education is abysmal. Moreover, children are not taught core essential values anymore. As a result, we see a rapid growth in children being homeschooled and sent to private schools instead. If you are looking for a private school in Pretoria North for your child, Assumption Convent Primary School is your first choice.

What Should I Know About Assumption Convent Primary School?

• Admission Processes: Since Assumption Convent Primary School is a private academic institution, we have strict admission processes that must be followed. Please ensure that you fully understand the admission processes and have the necessary documents ready before submitting your admission forms. There are several key admission criteria that must be met for your child to be admitted to our institution. Please peruse these criteria beforehand to avoid any proverbial speedbumps.
• Capped Classroom Sizes: At Assumption Convent Primary School, we cap the size of our classes to ensure that every student can receive the necessary attention and are encouraged to participate accordingly. This allows our educators to fairly and efficiently assess the progress of every individual student, which is something that is completely ignored in most public-school systems. A typical classroom would have 25 or fewer students.

• Core Academic Subjects:
  • Languages: Our students are taught in English as a first Home language, with Afrikaans being taught as a first additional language. Since South Africa has 12 official languages, it is important to instil a bilingual foundation into your child.

• • Mathematics: Mathematics is another academic focal point, with foundational numeracy and problem-solving skills development at the forefront. This helps your child with the development of practical and logical skills, giving them the means to get into a mindset of seeking solutions to problems as opposed to allowing the problem to persist.

• • Sciences: Natural Sciences cover both biology and physics in earlier grades. Social Sciences combine History and Geography throughout later primary-school grades. Not only do these subjects teach your child about the basic principles of both natural and social studies, but they lay a foundation for your child on which they can build their future. These are pivotal elements for the development of your child during these crucial years of their life.
