At Prestige College, we follow the CAPS curriculum outlined by the Department of Basic Education of South Africa. However, as a Multiple Intelligence School, we go beyond the standard to recognise and nurture every learner’s unique strengths.
We understand that children learn in different ways some through words, others through numbers, music, movement, or interaction. That’s why we incorporate additional learning materials and tools that cater to the various intelligences in the classroom. Our educators receive ongoing training to support this enriched approach effectively. While CAPS provides the foundation, we are not limited by it our teaching goes further to unlock each child’s full potential.
