As the Operational Head of this exceptional educational institution, I am delighted to extend a warm and heartfelt welcome to all current and future parents and students. Get Ahead College is not simply a school. It is a vibrant and caring community with a profound commitment to academic excellence, holistic development, and the well-being of everyone within our walls.

With over 15 years of successfully guiding Grade 12 classes to achieve remarkable academic results, we take immense pride in our students’ accomplishments. Moreover, to further enhance our educational offerings, we have recently made the exciting transition to the Independent Examinations Board (IEB) – a move that elevates our commitment to delivering a world-class education.

At Get Ahead College, we embrace technology as a powerful tool to enrich learning experiences. From our Wi-Fi enabled classrooms to our cutting-edge 4iR Classroom featuring robotics, coding, interactive screens, 3D printers, and drone technology, we empower students with the skills needed to thrive in the digital age. Our ground breaking HP RTCi Classroom, the first of its kind in Africa, fosters collaboration, communication, creativity, and critical thinking through the use of computers.

But we don’t stop there – our focus extends beyond academic success. We strive to instil an entrepreneurial mindset and the art of clear goal-setting, nurturing intrinsic motivation for students to pursue their aspirations both during and after school. Our dedicated social worker and positive education model are essential pillars of support, ensuring our students’ well-being is both protected and nurtured in all circumstances.

We believe that learning extends beyond the classroom. Our comprehensive range of extra-curricular activities is designed to develop essential life skills and encourage personal growth.

As you consider joining our family, I invite you to explore our website and discover the wealth of opportunities and resources that await you at Get Ahead College. We are committed to providing an inclusive, nurturing, and empowering environment where every student can flourish and realize their true potential.

TREVOR HARBOTTLE,
OPERATIONAL HEAD

At Get Ahead College, we are committed to providing a nurturing and stimulating learning environment that prioritizes individual growth and development.

Our dedicated team of educators ensures that each student receives personalized attention and support, allowing them to reach their full potential.

Through the IEB’s rigorous assessment process, students are thoroughly prepared for the challenges of higher education and the workforce.

Our school’s commitment to academic excellence, coupled with the IEB’s esteemed curriculum, ensures that students are well-equipped to excel in their academic pursuits and make meaningful contributions to society.
