Curriculum and Framework
Across all phases, Pre-Primary, Preparatory and College, students follow the South African National Curriculum (CAPS) quality assured by Umalusi.
At College, the curriculum continues to high standards and prepares students to write the Independent Examinations Board (IEB) exams, equipping them for success beyond school.
Beginning January 2027, Crawford International Pre-Primary and Preparatory schools will transition away from the International Baccalaureate (IB) Programme.
