Queens College Senior School

Queen’s College Boys’ High School is a well-established, traditional public boys’ school which offers a vast array of opportunities for young men to develop their full potential in a caring and disciplined environment. At Queen’s we believe in the education of the total man and thus the curriculum encompasses academic, sporting and cultural activities, as well as emphasis on spiritual, social and leadership development. Queen’s College expects high standards of behaviour, dress and personal appearance, and Queenians are obliged to accept these standards and to observe the accepted school and hostel rules.

  • The proficiency of the applicant in English (as our school is an English medium school).
  • The proximity of the applicant’s residence for day scholars (preference must be given to pupils who live close to the school.
  • Applicants from outside South Africa must be in possession of the necessary study permits.
  • The fact that we only accept a certain number of learners in Grade 8 (as well as limited numbers in Grade 9 – 11), we urge parents/guardians to apply to other high schools as well.
