Elementary Schools in Cape Town?

Hey liliyasp,

Rondebosch is a pretty good area and there are loads of good schools are there. Off the top of my head, Rondebosch Boys, SACS, and Bishops are all good schools in the area, but these are local schools and they cover the South African curriculum, which might be a difficult adjustment. On the upside, with fees at around R3,000 to R4,000 a month, they'll definitely be cheaper than international schools, though this is still above the average for most primary school fees.

Groote Schuur Primary School, a somewhat less prestigious school than those listed above, is also in the area with school fees around R1,000 or so per month. I would really recommend the schools I first mentioned above over this kind of option, though, I don't really know much about this school.

There's also an Expat Arrivals page (link here) that goes into some details about the South African school system as a whole.

Let me know if you have any more questions, and best of luck with your internship!

Rondebosch Boys' Prep School. Very good school and affordable fees. Its just a matter of getting him in as schools are mostly already filled up for the new school year starting in January...
