MISSION

Kingdom Academy is a Christian School and a Ministry of Kingdom Ministries. The school is registered as an independent school with the Free State Department of Education. We follow the core curriculum but see the Lordship of Christ and a Biblical perspective as central in all our learning areas.

In our mission to facilitate the development of the whole person, we see the training of the intellect as critical and endeavour to provide an environment that is balanced and stimulating where young people can:

Develop their individual gifts to their full potentialLearn to think in a Christ like manner Cultivate an independent work ethic that will equip them to influence the world of work and study.

The school has always placed great emphasis on skills and values, along with the ability to apply knowledge. We are consequently open to new methods of learning and assessment, including an emphasis on outcomes as well as content, being careful not to compromise high academic standards in the process.

Evaluation is done through regular test series and examinations, as well as continuous assessment as described by the National Curriculum Statement.

Personal attention is ensured in classes that have a low educator learner ratio – our norm is a maximum of 24 per class. In the foundation phase, classes are served by both an educator and an assistant.
 

Spiritual Development

As a school, we acknowledge that raising children and training them for life is primarily the responsibility of the parent but we also believe that optimal development occurs when the household of faith, which includes the family and education, work together for the wellbeing of the child.

The school exists to train Christ-like leaders who will serve nations. We aim at providing a Christian environment in which all educators are born again and offer a Biblical perspective on their subjects. We have an active discipleship programme which takes place formally in weekly discipleship classes and informally as opportunities present.

Weekly chapel services are a highlight of the school programme. During these times learners are encouraged in the disciplines of worship, the teaching of the Word, in ministering one to another and to develop compassion for the world.
 

Outreach & Inreach

As a school we aim to have each learner in the school involved in some form of outreach.
Each grade is encouraged to link up with an organisation of their choice and develop a longstanding relationship with them on an ongoing basis.

We also realise that the habit of caring and serving begins ‘at home’ – it is with this in mind that we plan to develop an inreach programme.

Sport

Sport provides invaluable opportunities for discipleship as well as relational and emotional development.

Sport presently on offer at the school includes:

Hockey / Athletics / Soccer / Cricket / Tennis / Netball.

Cricket coaching is done by a professional coach. We compete against most schools in the Lejweleputswa area. Through the past years we have had successful sport achievers competing nationally and internationally in athletics and tennis.

Additional avenues of expression such as golf are available at an extra cost. These options may vary from time to time.

Social & Cultural Development

In keeping with our aim of developing well-rounded students, we offer a wide variety of social and cultural activities that caters for the diverse needs.
