This is so stupid everyone in the country knows that the best schools in south africa are the elite 7 schools and a few girls schools. Not that public school crap…. Sies

I agree with Crusader person. Hilton is for moffies, homos. I think Michaelhouse is better.
What are the three most significant things in judging the superiority of a high school. I have attended one South African high school for post-matric studies and spoken to a number of friends who have attended South African and for me the whole South African matric culture of matrics being superior is a common theme.
The high school I attend (Waterford Kamhlaba in Swaziland) felt more liberated, diverse in terms of cultural interactions and allowing for students to grow more uniquely in character.
I’m just interested in finding out peoples take on South African secondary and primary schooling??
Thanx for responses in advance…
