Somerset College, is a pre-primary, preparatory and senior school set against the backdrop of the breathtaking Helderberg and Stellenbosch mountain ranges in
Somerset West. Founded in 1997, today Somerset College is home to a
Pre-Primary, Preparatory School and a
Senior School with a combined enrolment of nearly 900 students and a staff of 100.
Offering a broad and balanced educational programme, what sets
Somerset College apart from other schools is the relaxed atmosphere in which young people from Grades 000 to 12 are able to learn and build relationships with their peers, while cultivating a sound, disciplined work ethic. Teachers become facilitators rather than instructors; students take responsibility for their own learning, honing the skills they will need in tertiary institutions and the workplace. And once they leave to make their own way in the world, they will be able to do so with pride, safe in the knowledge that their education has prepared them as fully as possible for the challenges and opportunities that lie ahead.
