Blouberg International School South Africa

 

Following our Holistic Approach – creativity, love, laughter and learning are the foundation of our teaching. Our education is about opening minds, providing our children with the attitudes, skills and knowledge needed to enable them to be fulfilled in their lives, in a happy, peaceful and safe society to which they are able to make a positive contribution.

 

 

 

Creativity underpins our approach to teaching and learning. In the words of Piaget, 'The principal goal of education is to create people who are capable of doing new things, not simply repeating what other generations have done - people who are creative, inventive discoverers.' 

We provide opportunities for our students to develop their creative skills, enabling them to be better prepared for life after school. The rapidly changing world demands that most people will have to adapt to several careers in the course of a lifetime. The majority of employers want to recruit people who see connections, have original ideas, are innovative, able to solve problems and communicate and work well with others. 

 

 

 

Currently the school offers classes from Pre-Reception (the year your child turns 4) to Year 7. As our Year 7 pupils progress through the school so will we introduce further classes. 

In 2009 our children entered Key Stage III where we opened our first Year 7 class. In 2010 we will introduce our first Year 8 class. In this way the school will grow in a controlled and managed environment. Our aim will be eventually to offer a Foundation Stage, Key Stage I (Junior Primary), Key Stage II (Senior Primary) and Key Stage III and IV (Senior School) which will lead to the internationally recognised qualifications, IGCSE (the old”O” Level), A-S and A- levels as well as the Primary and Middle Years Programs of the International Baccalaureate.
