The school is a cult, and the academics are horrible.
As a former student I wouldn't bring my child here. Academic issues (to name a few): The schools academic standards is horrible. They have changed the curriculum multiple times throughout one year because they felt like it, and when the students struggle with the constant change it is blamed on the students. Multiple teachers cannot teach/probably do not have a teaching licence. There is only about three good teachers in the highschool department, but even then they are heavily understaffed...

No Seriousness about Academics
If you care about your child's academic future, in particular those in high school, do not send your child to Entheos Christian School. This is not a school. It is a cult, a club, a social gathering, anything, but not a school, shame.

Narcissistic Culture Pervades at Entheos Christian School
A narcissistic culture pervades Entheos Christian School and it emanates from the office of the headmaster, Sir Dwain van Rensburg. It is such a shame to have sent your children to a Christian school, only to find it devolving into something that resembles a cult. Any concerns raised are ignored or you are given justifications that what they are doing is directed by God. God is not the author of confusion, which is what reigns at that school, so clearly there is another spirit prevailing there....

Do not recommend
Ok so let’s start of with the school is filled with favouritism. They only care about their name not about the students they make us feel less of a Christian and judge others based on their beliefs. They treat us like slaves. The principal holds a grudge on other student he makes us feel less than what we are worth. The school threatens children. They always tell us that they are out of stock with paces but they never are. Sometimes u will find his kids cheating and they won’t get in trouble but when it’s another student they get in trouble the school is also racist

DO NOT RECOMMEND
This school is very full of favoritism...all it cares about is its name and the principal only does things that benefit him and his family... the academics is a very confusing curriculum. Relegion is also forced onto the students which is not necessary ..The only thing nice there are the teachers ..who are very under appreciated. The whole school revolves around the principals children. I speak from experience as a former student. Principal only cares about the students that benefit him and the...

amazing school it is
it's an amazing school the curriculum mmhh?don't listen to the other bad reviews because the reviews have been written by students who was suspended or did something and had a bad experience because it something they did. so please take your kids to Entheos Christian School and it also teaches children to be free and not to be afraid when praise and worshiping God. ??

This school is greedy
This school will ruin you, they do not care about the students or staff, they (the principal) only care about the money

DO NOT GO HERE!!!!!!!!!!!
DO NOT GO HERE !!!!!! The principal is a vindictive, power-hungry person who gets pride and joy from tormenting children. He will do anything to tear you down if you don't follow his views and beliefs. As a former student, please do not go here, I have only bad memories of this school, except for my teachers who were fantastic. He, the principal, drove those teachers away because they were liked more. HIS TEACHERS DO NOT EVEN HAVE TEACHING LICENSES. He is delusional and greedy and he underpays his teachers. This is a toxic environment that forces religion onto students relentlessly. He uses scare tactics, public shaming and favouritism to get what he wants. I was a target of his abuse, he despised me for simply being who I was, so please, if you value your child's individualism, DO NOT SEND THEM HERE. I would rate this a zero but I cant, so a one will have to do.

A very recent student
I came into the school on my second last year of Highschool. I had chosen to redo my gr 11 to improve my marks and chose to do it through Entheos. Many things happened but one thing I can guarantee that I have never found a school where I felt more at home than at Entheos. The teachers and staff know each child on a personal level and go aboveand beyond when it comes to helping with any academic or life situation. Even when it felt like things felt less than ideal, no one (aspecially the principle) was against trying to find a solution or to make things easier for everyone. I had met some of the best people in my life there and would do it all over again if I had the choice. In my experience, only those who took the school's kindness and generosity for granted, due to their own ignorance and blantant refusal to work for what they want, had something negative to say about the school. I do (and forever will) love Entheos and will forever be thankful for the opportunities they have given me not just as a student hoping to become a scientist, but as a young adult striving for greatness. <3

do not send your kids here
if you love your kids and value their happiness and sense of self-worth, do not send them to this school... they will lose all sense of being themselves and will feel worthless. I am a former student who was ridiculed, blamed, targeted and shamed by the PRINCIPLE and some staff members just for having different views and beliefs. the teachers who care about students are sent away because the principal gets jealous of the teachers who the kids love and he gets rid of them. all happiness is stripped away and the students are forced to work hard under teachers who don't even have teaching licenses! the classrooms are small and if your child is independent, headstrong, passionate, have other beliefs or religious preferences then they will be targeted and belittled as well as shamed. please, for the sanity of your child, do not enrol them in this hellish school.

The school is practicing on a fround-upon unethical and diminishing basis. The school focuses on those families and students who actually bring finances to the table or who are friends with top management (the board). We the students are constantly emotionally blackmailed, and verbally bullied by staff especially the principal. Students are blaimed for management error, parents coming into the school for parent meetings (student feedback) are also guided on the wrong path and manipulated and a p...

the principle is the worst
the headmaster is very narcissistic and selfish. He runs the school like a vicious dictator, if I can give anyone advice don't send your kids to this school. They will be miserable because of the principle.

Most staff don't last a full year
Teachers are underpaid and overworked. Yet the principal and his family seem to live in luxury. Staff complaints are never acknowledged and department heads offer little support. Most teachers leave within a year of employment
- Student1.021 September 2021
Bad headmaster
The school’s headmaster is very hypocritical and he only ever acknowledges students he likes or students who benefit him or the school. All he cares about is his image and using our money to benefit himself and his family
- Student1.021 September 2021
Unmotivating
This school has made more negative than positive and makes the teachers cry every morning, the principal only rewards or acknowledge his own children or close friends children
- Student1.021 September 2021
Not good for student morale
The principal diminishes school morale by targeting students and discussing personal problems in front of the school. Most students feel worthless. Teachers are great though.

Unhappy Staff and Students.
It seems all the school cares about is its name, and not the people who make up the school. Self-esteem is often broken down and little is done to bring it back up. It also seems academics is all they care about, students as well as staff are pushed to a breaking point. Don't recommend.
