Guidance from our team
Pathway selection happens at the end of Junior School (Grade 9). It is informed by the learner's interests, their performance and assessment records across Junior School, career guidance, and conversations between the learner, parents and teachers.
Our team walks with every Grade 9 learner and family through this decision. The tracks and subjects listed here reflect what the school currently offers or plans to offer, and are updated in line with KICD curriculum designs.
