KEY COLLEGE mission

Finding the balance between flexibility and accountability, allowing students to find their individuality.

We are a small high school based in St Francis Bay. We honour a holistic education by teaching a hybrid, international curriculum, with additional, enrichment subjects such as Social Responsibility and Sustainability. 

We currently offer middle school Grades 7 – 9, which is completed over 2 years, a Foundation 1 and 2 year. We also offer the International General Certificate in Secondary Education (IGCSE), which is a CAPS Grade 10 and 11 equivalent. We look to opening the Advanced Subsidiary (AS) level, which is Grade 12 equivalent, in 2026.

Giving the next generation the tools that they need to thrive and achieve is the greatest honour one could hope for.

What parents say
After a few year of struggling to find the 'right school' for our daughter, Key College, has been the ideal solution. Cristan's approach to education empowers her students to thrive academically and personally while empowering students to become more independent and self-motivated. Watching our daughter blossom into a confident and intellectually curious individual has been the greatest reward.'
