Elite Sporting and Cultural Academy is an independent, private school located at the prestigious Wanderers Sports Club in Illovo, Johannesburg.

We offer an individualised, alternative learning environment for children who have a specific or general interest in sports and/or cultural activities. With access to top class facilities and coaches, the inclusion of sports psychology, nutrition, fitness and biokinetics, we support and facilitate each individual learner’s specific programme to achieve his/her personal best. We follow the Cambridge curriculum and encourage a learning environment that focuses on balance, both in the classroom and on the field.

ECSA's vision is to establish a vibrant and dynamic learning environment that facilitates both academic progress and talent building, developing game players who conduct themselves professionally and with integrity.

At ESCA, we develop in our learners:

• The desire to learn and grow and achieve one’s academic goals…
• The drive to train hard, both on the stage or sports field, as well as in life…
• The ability to conduct themselves professionally, and with integrity, at all times.

ESCA’s values provide a foundation for encouraging a sense of belonging and collaboration between family, school and the community.
