A complete educational
journey
Junior School
The Roedean School journey begins in Grade 0 in the nurturing environment of St Margaret’s, home to the Foundation Phase (Grade 0 to Form 1 [Grade 3]). With a strong pastoral care system in place in this phase, our pupils enjoy a holistic education within a safe, happy and stimulating learning environment.
The girls then move to the Upper Junior School, which encompasses Form II to Upper IV (Grades 4-7). Here the emphasis is on developing each girl’s unique strengths and instilling in them a love of learning. Our pupils are given an outstanding education in a compassionate and caring environment that encourages curiosity, tenacity, problem solving, and commitment to social justice.
Senior School
The five-year Senior School journey commences in Lower V (Grade 8) and culminates in Matric (Grade 12) where the girls write their Matric Certificate through the Independent Examinations Board (IEB) to complete their educational journey. Our results are always superb, opening doors to both national and international tertiary opportunities.
Our dynamic and rich school curriculum enables our girls to thrive in a happy, caring and stimulating environment. A superb academic programme offers pupils a wide variety of subjects with a special focus on the acquisition of 21st Century skills, while the extensive variety of co-curricular activities on offer helps develop leadership and other critical skills.
