    Waterstone College: Probably the best school in Joburg

    Waterstone College is an amazing school. The primary school has a variety of activities and so does the High School. The academics are amazing along with the sport, service and culture. There is absolutely NO FAVOURITISM. Lately, the class averages for each subject are improving and the English grade average is 83%

    Waterstone Curro HOD

    The principal of Waterstone Curro college should open his eyes and investigate his HODs in the primary school. Certain parents buy them gifts on a regular basis and these very parents socialise with these HODs, now this is where the favoritism come in if you a non favorite at the primary school you will not be regonised although you are an A student and an A junior sportsman. An A student in swimming and academics did not get an award for swimming nor for academics. Waterstone is losing credibil...

    They do not pay attention to what students are saying

    many unnecessary rules in place to protect the image of the school. students voices are ignored. the educators really don't care about the students if they're not in top 10 or are a top athlete. every issue is pushed away unless it brings the school’s name down. not to mention the pervy male teachers that MANY girls have complained about and brought up but have been ignored.

    2021 former matric

    Not worth the school fees, soccer and cricket are the only sports the school is concerned about. Some educational departments are better than others but nothing is worse than how the IT department is run… Heads are unreasonable and only worry about what makes the school look good not worried about what makes a good school. Handling of misconduct is very biased towards school image, not solving the actual issue. All in all this used to be THE school to be at but since curro came along :, )

    Past student review

    Was a great school, but now it is simply a business and students are there to bring in income. No passion for education and lack of care towards students voice. Some phenomenal teachers, and some who should have never entered into teaching. Lots of favouritism and blatant unfair treatment. Classes are getting too big and facilities aren’t keeping up. Public school treatment with private school fees.

    WSC High School

    Puts on a good image but behind closed doors they don’t hear the students out, neither do they pay attention to anyone that’s not first team or in the top ten academics
