Durban has voted, and Durban Girls’ College is thrilled and honoured to be voted as the Best Private High School in Durban in this year’s awards.

At Durban Girls’ College, not only do they teach their girls to look at the bigger picture of life but also to realise their place and potential within it. The heart of their teaching is based on the ‘a growth mindset’ and DGC’s Thinking Schools Programme has been accredited by Exeter University in the United Kingdom. They believe in fostering a love for learning and encourage creativity, critical thinking, and problem-solving skills among their pupils. Together, they continue to create a dynamic educational experience that prepares young minds to meet the challenges of a rapidly changing world.

Christianity is the founding aspect of the school and is still firmly entrenched within the nature of school life and underpins school traditions throughout the year. Core values of integrity, courage, agility, respect, and empathy form the foundation of everything they do.

“As we embark on this journey of continuous improvement, your feedback and encouragement inspire us to go above and beyond in delivering excellence in education.

“Join us in celebrating this achievement as we look forward to many more successes together!” – Executive Head, Heidi Rae.
