Why Woodhill College?
In an ideal world, every single educational institution would be the perfect setting for a learner. However, the reality is that many educational institutions lack the funds or the ability to provide the perfect environment, hence the development of independent educational institutions.
Learners are afforded the best possible opportunities at independent educational institutions in the form of :
** Smaller class sizes
** Good quality facilities
** Good sports facilities
** Top class educators
Woodhill College is a partnership between the school and its staff, the parent body and its learners. We are a co-educational school and accept learners from the age of three, when they enter the pre-primary school.
In Grade 1, the learners progress to the primary school and finally to the high school in Grade 7. In so doing, each learner is nurtured through each phase by providing them with a holistic, top-quality education where they are encouraged to be the individuals that they are and to endeavour to achieve to the best of their ability.
