Enriching the minds of our children

There has been an incredible shift in the International /National exposure at the Senior college over the last year.
The sports and academic sectors have seen overseas football tours and local netball tours. Also local sporting camps. Hosting International Football tournaments vs Zimbabwe on the new Sports Astro.
Academic exposure to the local universities have been highlights for some grade 11 students recently.
I am a proud parent to be associated with a school which is growing and evolving and not stagnating or closed to ideas. Well done Woodlands. Xxx

My review on Woodlands International College

Not really a great school. Overpriced for nothing, my children weren't really learning and obtaining any information my eldest son failed. Woodlands has a habit of firing teachers and the school focuses more on their favorite students

Woodlands college

The campus at woodlands has a nice layout, the sports fields that are almost finished will be a knock out and the football is good especially in the current u16 age group.

Great School

WOW WOW WOW is all we can say about Woodlands.
My kids have been in Woodlands for their 2nd year now. We have not had a problem and we have absolutely enjoyed every moment being apart of the Woodlands Family.

My Eldest daughter who is now in Grade one, was absolutely loved by her Grade 0 teacher that she refused to go to Grade one and she had an incredible bond with her teacher. She has gained so much in this school as a person.

We are very happy with this school and would not look twice. Everyone is so loving, friendly and its such an incredible feeling when everyone knows everyone in the school. It really is as close as a family is.

Thank you for everything, you definitely should enroll your children in this school if you want an A grade education as well as an A grade environment for your kid.

Thank you not only to this incredible school, but to you all who have played an important role in both Taylor and Mila's Education .

Top Class School

Woodlands is a wonderful school with a tranquil campus. The teachers are not only extremely well trained but also put the needs of their students first. Their attention to detail in every aspect is impeccable. Every event is thoroughly planned and perfectly executed. Top class education in such an amazing environment.

Discipline your children

It’s a shame when children get disciplined in accordance to school rules, which I am sure you agreed to when you signed up with Woodlands, how upset parents can get! It’s your fault they are going to school not wearing the right uniform! If they shaved at home like every other shaving man does, they wouldn’t be forced to shave at school. Stand up and be parents for a change, discipline your children, stop acting like a mate and they won’t get into trouble!!

Your child will love it here!!!

This school provides a healthy environment for learners as pupils are given space to grow and form bonds with others . Pupils are given the opportunity to express themselves and be heard . There is a balance between work and fun with a variety of sports and cultural activities as well as the work done inside the classroom . The school aims to “rise above mediocrity” as their motto states . The teachers are qualified and provide learners with adequate individual attention . Students are well behaved and polite . It is an inclusive environment where all identities are considered and everyone has a voice .

Strongest Mathematics Department

What a fantastic school, the new staff in Senior College are the best in the country! Strongest Maths department in SA! These teachers connect with the students, give academic support early mornings and afternoons! Top results this year, the College has never been stronger. My daughter is the happiest she has ever been!

Excellent School

My children have been at Woodlands for more than 13 years and I have never had an issue.
The teachers are amazing and put the children first. There is no favouritism as stated. All children are treated equally and fairly. The education level is of a high standard and the teachers assist the children wherever possible.
Very good school!!

Worst school in Boksburg

Teachers are full of favoritism!! we had the worst experience with the school. No parent should ever go through what we went through with our child. Teachers with very cold hearts and 0% care from leadership.

The Worst School Ever!! Horrible!!!

unsympathetic teachers with favoritism. It has been a nightmare for my family for putting our child at the Primary school in this school. we had to take our child out because they believe our child is not good enough for the school. no sympathy or patience for children at all and no care of how the parent is feeling. Very disappointed Parent

Time to move on.

This school has become a joke. What a pity as it used to have so much potential. Very disappointed parent. Huge Staff turn around and poor leadership.

You can come but be very careful

Be carful because in this school no matter what u do, you are divided by favoritism. It builds ur skills and is good but not recommendeded for a long term high school experience

Not recommended

This school is not what it used to be.
They are invading privacy go students. Go against their own code of conduct and tailor it to suit themselves.
Some of the teachers aew completely rude. High staff turn over.
Principals don't last a year... Your child is lucky to have the same homeroom teacher for the whole year.
One year one class had 4 different teachers.
They are always picking on kids.
A definite no go for me and it took me 8 years to realise this school is a bad place for my kids and my sanity.

It's ok

The schools OK, great actually . But I don't like the fact that some teachers shout at and yell or even accuse us for a one small mistake we didn't know we did, they should confront us nicely not attack and make us feel like we murdered someone
