CTHS Receives Award - Mar '15

Usually we are very busy testing the academic performance of our own learners throughout the year. However, in 2014  the Western Cape Education Department (WCED) also performed Language and Mathematics Systemic Tests on Cape Town High School, too. These tests are to ensure quality control in the teaching and learning environment.

So it was a very pleasant surprise to learn that WCED has given Cape Town High School an award!

The Award is for Overall Improvement in Academic Performance in Grade Nine:

Very well done to those hard-working teachers and learners who made this award possible
