Assumption Convent School is located in Germiston. Assumption Convent School is a school for girls which provides accessible, high quality education for young people from Pre-grade to Grade 12. A team of dedicated teachers foster self-discipline, respect and responsibility within a Catholic ethos.
To measure the greatness of a school, some would count the pupils. At Assumption Convent School we prefer to make the pupils count. There are fewer than 600 pupils in total and classes rarely exceed twenty-five, which enables each individual to be noticed and nurtured. At the same time, the manageable size of the school and its family atmosphere are excellent for staff morale, ensuring long-serving and committed teachers. The result is patient, child-centred education that allows each pupil to discover and develop her unique strengths.
This philosophy of caring has been a feature of Assumption Convent since its founding in 1946 by the Missionary Sisters of the Assumption. For more than sixty years our school has offered affordable Christian education that has helped pupils to achieve their maximum potential and use their gifts to make a positive difference to the lives of others.
The school is an associate member of the Catholic Schools Board and a member of the Independent Schools Association of Southern Africa. It follows the three-term year.
In addition to what all top independent schools offer - rigorous academic study and numerous sporting and cultural activities - we are a Catholic Girls School.
Being Catholic ensures a solid grounding in Christian values, helping all our pupils (Catholic and non-Catholic) reach their full potential and become caring citizens.
Being a girls only school will enhance your daughters learning experience. This is supported by extensive research which shows that single-sex schools often produce superior academic results, and consistently outperform their co-educational counterparts. Single-sex schools also allow coaches to develop sporting skills more effectively.
Despite fierce competition from other independent girls schools, we continue to grow and thrive. Our small classes, dedicated staff and excellent facilities - all offered at an affordable price - make Assumption Convent School one of the sought after girls high schools in Johannesburg.
Academics
Our teaching staff reflect the same high standards, and thanks to our stable, caring environment, typically stay on for many years. They are also encouraged to be life-long learners and regularly attend workshops and lectures. Several staff members have completed Masters' degrees or additional educational qualifications.
Our high school subjects cover virtually all university and technikon requirements, leading to numerous career options. Because mathematics is critical to so many professions, we do our utmost to assist pupils in this subject. Our senior mathematics classes are seldom bigger than twenty, guaranteeing individual attention, while our free daily mathematics clinic helps pupils experiencing difficulties.
