Afrikaans Policy
Afrikaans Values and Discipline
Parents often choose Afrikaans schools for their unique culture, discipline, and Christian values. At A+ Academy, we are founded on the principle of Proverbs 22:6: “Train a child in the way he should go, and when he is old, he will not turn from it.”
Our Ethos
A+ Academy's ethos is based on Christian values, as outlined in 1 Corinthians 13:4-8. We strive to create a loving, patient, and supportive environment that inspires our students to show respect and love.
Bilingual Students and Teachers
There is evidence that bilingualism benefits students academically. They learn to distinguish between languages and often perform better than monolingual students. Studies confirm that bilingualism does not cause confusion or language problems, but rather enhances academic performance.
SA Curriculum vs. CAIE Curriculum
The CAIE curriculum is regarded as one of the best in the world. A+ Academy offers this curriculum to better prepare students for international universities.
Afrikaans Students and the CAIE Curriculum
Our students are encouraged to use their mother tongue, Afrikaans, while following the CAIE curriculum. Our teachers explain difficult concepts in Afrikaans to ensure that all students understand.
CAIE Students Perform Well at Universities
Students following the CAIE curriculum excel at universities, as they are well-prepared for academic challenges in English.
The Benefits of Mixed Age Groups in Education and Play
Students in mixed age groups develop better social skills and increased self-confidence, creating a valuable learning environment.
The Benefits of Smaller Classes
Smaller classes provide more individual attention, better learning outcomes, and increased student participation.
A+ Academy is a Winning Formula for Afrikaans Students
At A+ Academy, we combine academic focus with a rich culture, including drama, music, and sports. We strive to provide world-class education grounded in the values of love and respect, inspired by 1 Corinthians 13.
