We acknowledge that this is a different type of learning system and that it may take some time and perseverance for high school learners to adapt. If your child feels they are not managing, they can reach out to their Support Coach, who will identify their socio-emotional needs and refer these to our School Counsellors.
To secure your child’s place at our school and accept the conditional offer, we require a once-off placement fee to be paid in advance. This payment is non-refundable, and will not be deducted from the total tuition cost.
This fee includes but is not limited to the costs associated with record verification, learner onboarding and the purchase of technology licences on behalf of the learner.
International General Certificate of Secondary Education (IGCSE), Advanced Subsidiary (AS) Level and Advanced (A) Level examinations all have to be written at Cambridge-approved examination centres in either the May/June or October/November exam sittings.
Internal examinations, such as trial examinations or internal year-end examinations, will be written online and run by UCT Online High School.
For learners based in South Africa who are younger than 15 years old, the responsibility will lie with the guardians to apply to the head of their Provincial Education Department to register their child/children for home education or to apply for an exemption from compulsory education. This is not necessary if the learner is over the age of 15 years old.
In order to get this process going, guardians may click here to gain more insight into the government homeschooling registration requirements and may visit the website of your provincial Education Department to gain more insight into exemption applications.
While this is something guardians will be required to do, we’ll be here to guide you!

IGCSE Afrikaans is designed for learners who have an existing foundation in the language. Ideally, a learner should have completed Lower Secondary or Grade 9 Afrikaans. Cambridge International is very clear that the level of IGCSE Afrikaans is for “learners who already have a working knowledge of the language.”
