OUR VISION
Educating for Excellence
In order to attain this vision, Queen’s College strives to:
- Educate the whole man by providing a well-balanced, all round, Christian-based education in a caring environment.
- Create an environment and infrastructure conducive to the realisation of the pupil’s full academic potential by offering expert tuition in a relevant and diverse choice of subjects.
- Maintain the College’s best traditions and encourage the development of leadership, pride and loyalty.
- Encourage teamwork through the development of harmony,tolerance and co-operation.
- Foster positive attitudes of self-discipline, commitment, good manners, politeness, empathy, cheerfulness and sportsmanship.
- Equip young men with appropriate skills to meet the changing demands of modern society.
- Maintain the highest standards of discipline, behaviour, dress and appearance.
Queen's College aims to provide a broad and balanced Christian-based education which prepares pupils to succeed academically and gives them the confidence and skills to meet the challenges and demands of modern society.
The College offers a wide range of subjects catering for the needs of all pupils preparing them for tertiary education in any field. While the educational programme is consistent with the broad system laid down in the National Curriculum, our well-qualified and motivated staff strives to enrich studies by relating them to real-life social, ethical, environmental and economic issues. Teachers also bring lessons alive by making extensive use of information technology and arranging stimulating educational excursions and field trips.
Computer literacy is an integral part of all subjects at Queen's. Valuable computer skills are learnt in our well-equipped computer centre. Computer Applications Technology and Information Technology are offered as subject options in the FET phase (Grades 10 to 12).
In addition to the computer centre, our modern, spacious teaching facilities include 25 classrooms, four Science and Biology laboratories, a design and technology facility (Engineering and Graphic Design), a media centre, a library and a music facility.Visual Art is taught in conjunction with our sister school, Queenstown Girls' High School.
The school currently does not provide a Post Matric option.
