About our school

We are a Christian school built around individual learning.

We were established in 2010 and opened our doors on 24 January 2011. Since then, Accelerated Christian Education (ACE) has formed the foundation of our individualised curriculum from Grade RR to 12.

Our school was founded by Pastor Gerrit Pretorius, presiding Pastor of the Apostolic Faith Mission of South Africa: Randfontein Congregation. Dr Chris Ayres has served as our Principal since 11 January 2016.
