74 Shepherd, Bryanston, Sandton, 2191.
We are dedicated and passionate about learner diversity and the education of our learners.
Sandton Junior School was started due to a need for new schools in Bryanston. No new government schools had been opened in the area for over 30 years, and there was a demand for smaller schools where children are treated equally, class sizes are small and learners receive individual attention from dedicated teachers.
Sandton Junior School has a state-of-the-art building and is situated in the leafy suburb of Bryanston. The school was designed to enhance every learner’s learning experience and was purposefully built to this end.
We started our high school in 2018 and now cater for all learners from Grade 8, to grade 12 (High School).
We make use of the CAPS curriculum, focusing on preparing learners for IEB examinations. We offer small classes, so each child receives individual attention. We promote inclusivity and welcome all children to Sandton Junior and High School.
