Preparatory School in Midrand
Our school is a happy place. Our children enjoy coming to school in the morning and they spend a busy day, both in the classroom and on the playground. The relaxed atmosphere belies the fact that an enormous amount of learning is taking place. The children are encouraged to develop enquiring minds and the teachers frequently deviate from the curriculum in order to seize incidental learning opportunities. In this way, we try to foster intellectual curiosity in each child. We believe that learning should not be a chore – it should be fun!
The children at Carlswald House are loved, nurtured and guided towards developing a positive attitude towards learning. In this way, we hope to instil in each child the self-belief and confidence to embrace formal education. A great deal of emphasis is placed on promoting and developing values such as integrity, respect, responsibility and trust in our pupils, in order to enable them to, one day, take their place in the world as fully functioning and successful adults. We are growing and tending our future South Africans with care!




Junior Prep
The Junior Preparatory at Carlswald House Preparatory is comprised of Grade R – 3.
The focus of the Junior Preparatory is on the child as an individual. There is a reason that this particular phase is called “the Foundation Phase”. It is because this is where our children are given a solid foundation on which to build their careers as life-long learners.

Senior Prep
Our Senior Preparatory incorporates Grades 4 to 7 and is the beginning of a more formalised education.
Our assessment process is continuous, which means the children’s work is assessed to ensure concepts and more importantly, skills are understood and applied in a variety of different ways.

Carlswald House Preparatory is a load shedding free school.
