St Peter's College is an independent school where our students are prepared, over a five year period, to write the Independent Education Board (I. E. B) examinations to qualify for their National Senior Certificate (N. S. C.) or Matric Certificate.
St Peter's College is a school where students are enlightened and challenged. It is a place where students discover their passions, their talents, what motivates them and what inspires them. During the five years of high school, our students make deep connections with their teachers and their peers. They become part of a tight-knit community committed to learning.
In the first two years of high school, the students are exposed to every subject on offer at the College, in order to stimulate interest in the areas where students may have an inherent skill and ability.
