King David Primary School Sandton

King David Primary School Sandton is a Jewish primary school catering for students from Grade R through to Grade 7. The uniqueness of our school is tangible as you step through its doors. The space is charged with expectation - an energy, a warmth. There is a sense of identity intrinsic to our Jewish Ethos, most of all, it's the feeling of belonging - you're home.

The beautiful grounds and facilities have their part to play, but it's the people who leave their imprints on the annals of time. There are many individuals and personalities that make up the fabric of our school, but it's the pupils who are our most precious asset, the future of our country, the leaders of our world.

We seek to nurture and empower them as they emerge from early childhood, developing their personalities, academic prowess, cultural and sporting aspirations as we watch them them grow into menschen and global citizens.

The substantial responsibility of such a journey does not escape any at our school. Teaching boys and girls to think and function independently underpins all our learning. It is a contant joy to follow the paths of the King David Primary School Sandton pupils who, as they look upon this phase in their school life with pride, they flourish and fly.

King David Schools cater for pupils from pre-school education through to their final national examinations. The School’s aim has always been to be a leader in the education of pupils and to set the pace for educational change.

There is a long history of outstanding Matriculation results with an unbroken record of 100% pass rate. King David High Schools are very proud of their academic reputation and are consistently rated in the top achieving schools in the country. We also take very seriously our responsibility to support pupils who have learning challenges. To this end we have an educational support programme to cater for those pupils who are in need of support structures.

We also offer the extension activities and qualifications of many national competitions and Olympiads and Advanced Programme Mathematics and Advanced Programme English.

A positive work ethic is encouraged and supported by an experienced, highly qualified and dedicated staff. Our pupils sit the Independent Examinations Board (IEB) School leaving qualification which is offered by many independent schools. We strive to maintain top levels of achievement by writing the ACER international benchmarks as well as internal benchmarking through our Master Maths programme.

In terms of our teaching methodology, our schools, particularly in the junior high grades have embarked on a digital learning programme which allows our pupils to experience the most stimulating and interactive learning environment.
