Matric at Michael Mount
Preparing well-rounded individuals for life
Having completed the Waldorf curriculum in Class 11, students focus solely on the IEB Matric syllabus in their final year in preparation for their Independent Examinations Board (IEB) National Senior Certificate final examinations. Every student is encouraged and assisted in achieving the best matric results they possibly can.
The majority of Waldorf graduates go on to university, both locally and overseas, to study a diverse range of fields across the sciences, humanities, and business, and many continue beyond their first degree. What sets Michael Mount students apart is that they are grounded in a conscious way of thinking, making them likely to work towards bringing about positive change in the world as a result of a holistic upbringing.
