Not impressed at all!! do not recommend.
My daughter has been in Curro for 4 years now, and every day I regret enrolling her in this school. All that matters to them is money, swopping High School and Primary School buildings is proof of that, make more room for more kids right? Over the time my child has spent at this school I have made comparisons to public schools. • Curro offers less subject choices in Grade 10 – 12 than most government schools. (They literally offer the basics) On their website they do stipulate having wider subj...

The rise and Fall of Curro
Curro Academy Wilgeheuwel was a nice school but it started going downhill after covid now the teachers are horrible because they switch them out like changing clothes and their current staff I won't say names but the grade 11 business teacher are really bad and ever since Gibson(former executive head) left it has been a totall hellhole and I don’t recommend taking your child here maybe in primary but High school wise your better off at Aurora. Reasons why I say this is because the prices at the...

Curro sucks
Well to start off curro is a place where ist is just business no education whatsoever they lie saying they get teachers who have masters in all their fields but knowing them they probbaly get the first one they see. A teacher at the start of the year was fired becuase she gave demerits that were not necessary to add to that many of the teachers set unrealistic dates to hand in assignments even though there is supposssed to be an allocated amount of time. The highschool is always unorganised as t...

Teachers resignations
Why are teachers always resigning compromising the kids education?

Traffic at Curro Wilgeheuwel Academy
The traffic at Curro Wilgeheuwel Academy has become a nightmare. Parents themselves are impatient and are not at all curtous. The school has only given empty promises to sort out the traffic. I was involved in a accident where a parent on purpose bumped into my car and left damage and acted like she did nothing wrong.

What a learner thinks
I really love it! the teachers really help and since ive been going my grades really came up! the teachers are also really helpful and kind, they give you help when you need it and they are easy to approach. the sports is really great, and the culture activities get you involved in socialising. There is a strict code of conduct that is what makes curro an amazing school to be at, the children are respectful and dont judge you, we all help each other out. Thats why i am proud to say im proud to be one in the curro family

My experience at curro academy
I started at this school the same year that it launched for the first time.I was in grade six back then and i would say that the school has really progressed over the years,i mean its not perfect and just like every school it does have its downfalls.Curro's failure to communicate with parents and students makes it very difficult to co-operate and keep up with any new information.The education is not really top notch and they loose a lot of teachers in just a few months which means that a few classes go for weeks without a teacher and fall back in school work.The discipline really needs to be worked on because not everything is brought to light and some issues are just thrown under the carpet and the rest of us must just live with it.But im not here to just talk about the downfalls,the school is great when it comes to social activities and they really try their best to make sure that everyone is accomodated.I like the fact that they have a variety of sport choices to pick from. With my experience at curro,i would definetlely recommend the school to people looking for a new school.

This is Curro Academy Wilgeheuwel Highschool
This is a review for the High school side. I joined Curro Academy Wilgeheuwel when it just opened and I was in the highest existing grade (gr9) at the time. It has had plenty of time since it’s grand opening to manage itself accordingly, however this isn’t the case. There has always been poor management, lack of communication and not to mention a lack of adequate teaching. These are standard problems most schools experience but the only difference here is that this Academy advertises the comple...

My curro (disappointment)
This school should be a military instead of a school.curro has alot of rules that are fully useless.one rule is if you get a detention you will get suspended.the maths teacher makes you squat for 10 minutes if you late for a class or homework not done and he will still give you a detention.there is alot of drugs and bulling in the school.curro make most children very angry on how the school is.
