Preparing Students for University and Beyond
Kobe Academy's high school program (Grades 8-12) offers a rigorous academic experience through the Independent Examinations Board (IEB) and International Schools Curriculum (ISC) frameworks.
Our program is designed to develop critical thinkers, problem solvers, and leaders who are prepared for the challenges of tertiary education and the modern workforce. We maintain high academic standards while fostering personal growth and social responsibility.
A progressive approach to senior phase education
The foundation-building phase where students explore a broad range of subjects while developing essential academic skills.
The focused preparation for National Senior Certificate examinations and tertiary education pathways.
The IEB qualification is benchmarked against international standards, ensuring our graduates can compete globally and gain admission to universities worldwide.
IEB assessments emphasize application of knowledge, problem-solving and higher-order thinking skills rather than rote memorization.
Our students consistently outperform national averages in university readiness metrics, with 98% of our graduates gaining tertiary admission.
Continuous evaluation through projects, presentations and practical work prepares students for varied assessment methods in higher education.
The IEB curriculum emphasizes values, social responsibility and ethical decision-making alongside academic excellence.
Our educators receive specialized IEB training to deliver dynamic, student-centered lessons that inspire deep learning.
We provide comprehensive support to ensure all students reach their potential:
Student council, prefect system, and numerous leadership opportunities cultivate responsibility and initiative.
Drama productions, music ensembles, debate teams, and cultural exchanges enrich student life.
Competitive and recreational sports programs promote teamwork, discipline and healthy lifestyles.
Required service hours instill social responsibility through partnerships with local organizations.
Job shadowing, career fairs, and alumni networking events connect students to professional pathways.
Counseling services, stress management workshops, and health education support student wellbeing.
