Curro Kathu is a leading independent school in Kathu, Northern Cape that provides high-quality education to learners from Grade R to Grade 12 in English or Afrikaans with a focus on developing 21st-century learning skills.
Our small class sizes and enhanced curriculum empower learners with skills and knowledge to grow into self-confident individuals. With specialised subjects and dedicated teachers, our well-rounded approach prepares learners for the IEB examination at the end of Grade 12.
Our nursery school, Curro Castle Kathu, offers an integrated play-based programme to children from 3 months to 5 years. View their webpage to see how we apply our internally developed programme to support your child’s early learning and development goals.
At Curro Kathu, we balance academic excellence with sports and cultural activities that ensure learners develop into well-rounded individuals. We provide a strong educational foundation starting with carefully designed programmes in Grade R (such as the Bazoo integrated literacy programme) and building to a variety of specialised subjects (such as Robotics and Engineering Graphics and Design) in primary and high school.
Our enhanced curriculum, taught in English or Afrikaans, incorporates a project-based learning approach, while our dedicated teachers and recreational activities aim to make learning a fun experience.
We also incorporate 21st-century learning by using tablets in the classroom for certain subjects, rather than textbooks from the intermediate phase onwards.
Our learners are prepared for the IEB examination at the end of Grade 12, and we focus on a greater world-readiness rather than merely an exam-driven approach.
