Bad Bad Bad

Very very disappointed with this school, i would advise parents not to take their kids there.
Teachers are resigning every month and our kids are left without teachers and come exam time kids fail. The school doesn't even look like a private school especially the back where it is high school. The reception is nice and fancy, dont be fooled by what you see at reception.
DONT TAKE YOUR KIDS THERE, I ALSO REGRET

trashy school

I would note recommend.
The accounts departments treats parents like trash. They make no arrangements in difficult circumstances.
If i had known this from the beginning i would not send my child here. worst school ever.

Unpaid salaries of teachers.

I worked for the school. Even after paying us little money they still don't pay us in full. I Wark there from March 2021 up to December 2021. June I was paid R4500 instead of R5500. Management Said they will pay us the outstanding balance which that did not take place. December I was paid R4000. I have been communicating with the management to pay my outstanding balance but it's clear they don't want to.

They only concern is them getting school fees from parents they don't care about anybody else. As teachers we give our best to educate the learners in a way that I had to find my our teaching materials to teach learners. But my hard work has gone unnoticed.

The management of the school only cares about they own benefits.

School uniform

Overpriced school uniforms of cheap quality you are requested to pre order and it will take ages before you get your order and the quality of uniforms you will receive will shock you(purchasing a grade 1 shirt for R200 which is not even worth R50).The school’s main objective is making money whilst portraying a wrong image to the community. Rufaro did good uniforms last year than what you have provided this year i must say i am highly disappointed.

I love the idea of leaving hey...

If only it was possible to give a review without a review...
We are treated like customers not students whereas the education is held as a brand.There is intense marketing and a fabricated image not all you see is as it seems.They are so focused on building a fantastic outer portrayal while the inside,us, decays.Virtue signaling and exploitation are their true specialty not running a school!

But then again we have put up with a tainted and now outdated school system since its induction...pretty sure we can live with it now

Not worth it

This school management team lacks respect. They dont worry about the children and the academics level is poor with barely trained educators with overpriced fees for poor education

Selfish school

They only care about school fees payments. They don't care about children's education and welfare. I wish I never took my child to this school.

Spectacular mystery of Royal Kings School

This is actually my first year in the school and for starters,I'd promote the school as very welcoming since I was able to get comfortable and integrate competently with the learners and teachers themselves.I hate to say it but im always looking forward to going to school and I literally boil when it's time to go home.Basically id say that this school introduced me to my supplemented family.

We participate in a variety of activities,indoors and outdoors,and although it gets chaotic at times,we actually get to learn something and most importantly we enjoy.
The only issue that's retarding the school is the construction that's taking place (will probably and hopefully be done when we get back to school),which is also a menace to students.However,the positivity out of it is that classes are being extended for less students in each class being taught based on the efficiency derived from them.And swimming pools are also built to make the school more enjoyable as well as improving our health and fitness.

I'd write a book about the pros and cons of the school,but the pros would undeniably fill up 90% of the book.Due to certain occurrences my review ends here however favorable factors about Royal Kings are beyond expectations.Overall ,Royal Kings is the best school I've been to out of all the schools I've been to and seen.

Construction problems

Royal Kings School is a combined school which has primary and high school.The school is making more buildings and they moved us in a building which is still under construction, we barely learn because of all the noise our uniforms is always dirty because of the dust and student's and teacher's get sick because of the dust
