Curriculum guide

CAPS, American GED, IEB and Cambridge explained

Four pathways, different goals—and supportive guidance to help families make sense of the options.

Choosing a curriculum is an important family decision. St Ronalds Homeschool supports the learner’s daily work, while the selected curriculum provider supplies the formal programme and assessments.

CAPS

CAPS follows South Africa’s national curriculum. It is often chosen by families who want a familiar grade-based pathway. CAPS and American GED are the two main focus areas at St Ronalds.

American GED

The GED is an alternative secondary-school equivalency pathway. Learners need disciplined preparation and must be ready for the required subject tests.

IEB and Cambridge

IEB and Cambridge offer other recognised academic routes. Provider requirements and fees vary, so families should confirm the latest information directly with the chosen provider.

At our Brackenhurst, Alberton centre, we help learners plan their work, understand concepts and build consistent study habits across these pathways.
