At Kingswood College, we create an environment that aims to foster the building of a strong foundation for lifelong learning through the promotion of a positive learning environment – one that stimulates the creation of enthusiasm for learning.
With the aim of Educating for Life we have introduced ICE (Innovation, Creativity and Entrepreneurship) which is infused through all our learning areas. Through ICE we develop skills in young Kingswoodians, which gives them the capacity to think on their feet, to be creative in the moment and to fully embrace the notion of lifelong learning. The introduction of Robotics into our Grade 8 and 9 curriculum is part of this process.
Outdoor education activities remain an important and fundamental component of the philosophy of the College.

Kingswood pupils write matric examinations set by the Independent Examinations Board (IEB), giving them a school-leaving qualification that is truly world-class.
An important aspect of an IEB matric is that it is an internationally benchmarked qualification. The IEB NSC is recognised by the United Kingdom National Academic Recognition Information Centre (UK NARIC) and as such, is considered equivalent to the UK AS-level qualification.
Many of past pupils have been accepted and studied at prestigious universities around the world because of this opportunity.
While the IEB is guided by the national curriculum, it offers an independent assessment and examination process. In comparison to the National Senior Certificate, emphasis is placed on a greater world-readiness rather than a purely examination-driven approach.
Pupils are taught to think critically and innovatively, express their ideas, problem-solve and be creative and reflective thinkers which we value as an important step to our goal of Education for Life.
At Kingswood College, we believe that a critical component to the success of our pupils lies in the joint effort of a multidisciplinary team, which typically includes the class teacher and where applicable a remedial therapist, an occupational therapist, speech-and-language therapist and/or psychotherapist.
The Kingswood Learning Support and Development team consists of both contracted and private practitioners (who function independently of the school), all of whom have rooms on campus to best assist our pupils.
