Generation Schools Somerset West

Introduction

Generation Schools Somerset West Campus offers a unique blend of tradition and innovation, set against the stunning backdrop of Somerset West.

Our campus is dedicated to providing a nurturing and challenging environment where students can excel academically and grow personally. With a curriculum that integrates Montessori and Cambridge International principles, we deliver a well-rounded education that promotes intellectual curiosity, creative expression, and leadership. 

The campus features state-of-the-art classrooms, specialised labs, and extensive recreational facilities, an aquatic centre and full-sized sporting fields, ensuring that students have access to all the resources they need to succeed.

At Somerset West Campus, we are committed to cultivating a community of learners who are prepared to navigate and contribute to a rapidly changing world.

IEB

We are excited to announce that due to increased community interest, our campus will continue to offer both Grade 11 and Grade 12 in the IEB stream for 2025, alongside our established AS/A-Level Cambridge International curriculum and Sí pathway.

Our multiple pathway/curricula offering reflects our commitment to meeting the diverse educational needs of our students and the broader community, providing pathways that cater to a variety of academic goals and learning preferences.


Our IEB stream is designed to deliver a rigorous, holistic education that prepares students for success in both national and international contexts.

Our Grade 11 and 12 IEB curriculum offerings include core subjects like English, Mathematics, and Afrikaans, alongside options such as Physical Sciences, Business Studies, Life Sciences, Accounting, History, Geography, CAT, and Visual Art. Life Orientation and Physical Education ensure a well-rounded approach to student development.


Whether students choose the esteemed IEB stream, the globally recognised Cambridge International curriculum, or the innovative Sí pathway, they will flourish in an inspiring, supportive environment where academic excellence, critical thinking, and personal empowerment are at the heart of everything we do.
