Curro was established in 1998 and is the leading for-profit independent school provider in southern Africa. It develops, acquires and manages independent schools for learners from three months to Grade 12.
Curro believes that the purpose of education is to empower every person with the opportunity to achieve their potential as individuals and members of society. The Group further believes that education is the cornerstone in the development of quality leaders and responsible citizens who will positively impact the economy, environment and society.
Curro has a vision, which is to make independent school education accessible to more learners throughout southern Africa. The Group’s value system is based on four pillars: Child-friendliness, positive discipline, Christian ethos (ethics and morals), and creative thinking.
Curro created a balanced educational space in which learners can learn and grow, as encompassed in the name of the Group.
South African education has seen many transformations since 1994. However, despite a substantial allocation of the national budget to education, the increasing demand for high quality schools and teachers remains insatiable.
Despite making progress in creating equal opportunities for learners, the government still faces great challenges in providing education at an acceptable standard. Understandably, their efforts are targeted where the situation is most dire. However, this creates a vacuum in terms of facilities and standards at the lower to middle of the market, as well as for new campuses in the more affluent areas. This has led to the private sector increasingly playing its part.
Section 29 of the South African Constitution enshrines and protects the valuable role of independent schools in this regard. Against this background, Curro aims to develop a large number of independent schools across South Africa and the rest of Africa. Development of independent schools creates opportunities in public schools for new enrolments and saves the state significant capital outlay and running costs.
Curro offers high-quality education in a manner that provides its learners with the best possible academic education while supporting their development into well-rounded citizens. The controlled class sizes allow its dedicated teachers to pay individual attention to learners so that they can develop to the best of their individual abilities.
At Curro, learners, parents and teachers work together in an extended environment to ensure its learners’ success. The Group believes it is a shared responsibility to empower children with the creative, intellectual and decision-making skills necessary for them to become intellectual and socially responsible adults who will take on the 21st century with confidence.
What makes Curro unique are:
- Limited class sizes of 25 to 35 learners, depending on the schools model
- Teachers provide personal attention to each learner
- Teachers are dedicated to the success of each learner
- Enhanced curriculums include specialized offerings, such as Robotics
- Technology is used in the classroom as part of daily lessons
- Focus is placed on developing the learner as a well-rounded individual
Curro will expand its independent school group through new developments and acquisitions. This strategy will not only support the public sector but will provide parents with additional options for their children’s education, as independent schools increasingly improve educational standards. This will positively impact the development of the South African population and economic growth.
