Jeppe High School For Boys

It a very great school my brother and my dad and my three nephew went there one still there great respect for the every one

If I could travel back in time to rectify only 1 mistake I've ever made, it would be attending this distaster of a "school" If you are going to enrol at this sports academy, I hope for your sake that you're not part of a minority group like LGBTQ+, neurodivergents etc. because you will face endless ridicule. It also doesn't help that the current HOD of life orientation openly promotes transphobia and homophobia. As mentioned above, if you would like to attend a school for academic purposes, don't make my mistake. Jeppe has made it abundantly clear that the main focus of the "school" is sports. It is not uncommon for a day to encompass twice the amount of time spent on useless garbage like warcry practices than mathematics. The top set teachers are outstanding, they truly are. It's a crying shame that the country wide acclaimed "well mannered" students frequently push these teachers to tears, to leaving the class during lessons or even to having breakdowns on the floor. The executive staff, for the most part, are also a thorn in educators' sides. The disregard for actual schooling is their fault first and foremost, and is amplified by the students. After all, who changes the structure of the day to accommodate warcries and useless patriotism. If you are considering boarding for your son, you might aswell lock him in the back yard and let him forage for food to survive, since he'd get better nutrition that way. Not to mention how poor the facilities are. The showers are grimy, toilet stalls are dirty, there is almost never any hand soap in the lavatories, food poisoning is just another weekday. The kitchen staff do not wear hair nets or gloves and the kitchen itself is filthy. What you will lose out on by not attending Jeppe is an excellent mathematics department, FS maths department, physics department, life sciences department and afrikaans department. What you will gain by choosing another institution is an exec that actually focuses on education, personal safety for minority groups, skipping the annual nepotism contest (prefectship), and a cohort that hopefully doesn't drive the enablers of their entire future to insanity.

My review is based on the fact that I'm a former student of DHS in Durban. Horrible academic facilities, refuses to adopt new methods of learning (via tablets, etc) contributes nothing performance and visual arts. I can't even recommend this of you want to be serious about sports. You have to consider KES or St Stitians, or a different boarding school.

not good for you mental health

A magnificent school environment that promotes unity among all the individuals within the premises. It enables bonds to be properly formed

Excellent sports and academic opportunities.

It's learning is very lovely and the experience is amazing

Greatest privilege of my life was attending this school. Made friends and memories for life. The school shaped who I am today and I'm forever grateful for my experiences there. You dont need siblings to have brothers.

I went to this high school and honestly it was the best decision I ever made even during lockdown. They have been absolutely brilliant they are amzing even while doing online learning and always keep up with the Times. Jeppe boys is a phenomenal school and will always have my full support

Jeppe is a place like no other there is always a sence of pride within the schools and the students have exceptional manners
