ABOUT US

Education is the complicated, multidimensional process incorporating the fine art of preparing and directing the relatively helpless young child through the maze of developmental phases on the road to adulthood. The educator achieves this by employing the calculated use of various educational strategies in order that the developing child evolves, arriving at an independent, self-sufficient state of adulthood. It is therefore the goal of Maragon Private Schools to produce mature, well-balanced young adults who possess a loyalty and love for God and country, capable of prospering in the world of tomorrow.

Gone are the days where a graduate can expect a job upon leaving the school. In a world of 6 billion people, where two babies are born every time a heart beats, knowledge is said to double every four and a half years at the current rate. It is for this complex, challenging world of tomorrow, that educators prepare our youth. Adults of tomorrow will have to cope with a future shock, solving tomorrow's problems, today, in order to cope with the legacy of our generation.

Maragon's educational strategy provides the vehicle for the child to form a bridge between himself and his destination, namely adulthood, where the reality of his environment is translated into syllabus content. This is achieved by using traditional teaching strategies as well as employing useful current trends, which incorporate paradigm shifts, as South Africa strives to develop its own valid education system.

It is said that children are like wet cement: whatever touches them in their youth leaves a lasting impression. Maragon Private Schools subscribe to this philosophy, offering a loving, safe Christian environment, where the child is able to explore, discover and extend himself as he transcends various levels during his development. Each child at Maragon Private Schools will learn both content and skills, equipping him for the future.

It has been stated that South Africa's success will depend in a major way on the education of its people. Certain countries such as Japan, Taiwan and Korea, with few of their own resources, have clearly shown the way. Young South Africans with scientific and mathematical ability must be given the opportunity to develop the exciting prospects that lie ahead of them. There is a continuing need to motivate our scholars to step onto the exciting technology career ladder early in their school lives while at the same time recognising, exploiting and developing their rich cultural and sporting heritage.

Current trends in the world of work no longer guarantee employment, where each individual is only as good as his/her last product. It is for this reason that Maragon Private Schools produce and develop leadership in its scholars who are not only qualified, but also capable, motivated, young leaders who posses honed management skills which give them the edge in their futures.
