Penryn College is the oldest Independent high school in Mpumalanga and is a proud member of ISASA (Independent Schools Association of Southern Africa).
Our Philosophy
We are deeply proud that our history is rooted in social development and transformation of education in our Province and Nation bieng the only dual-curriculum high school in Nelspruit.
Developing scholars with high moral standards and character is core to our approach at Penryn.
Exposure to and acceptance of diversity makes it easy for Penryn scholars to make the transition to tertiary education and gives them a real voice when it comes to job interviews.
Penryn encourages our scholars to achieve at their highest potential, so that doors open for them when they leave school.
Balanced emotional intelligence, a diverse background and the ability to achieve at their highest potential ensures that Penryn scholars will be set up in world where so many jobs will be taken over by machines. They will have a skill that so many people will lack – to be able to engage on a human level.
