The ISCT Difference
Cambridge education is valued and trusted across the globe. Although international in approach, our UK-based curriculum also makes allowance for local content.
RECOGNISED WORLDWIDE
Over 1,400 universities around the world recognise and accept Cambridge Assessment International Education qualifications.
GLOBAL COMMUNITY
Students can transfer easily between more than 10,000 Cambridge schools in over 160 countries across 9 regions.
HIGHER-ORDER THINKING
While we value in-depth subject knowledge, our programmes also focus on developing transferrable skills, such as critical thinking and problem-solving.
INDIVIDUAL LEARNING
We don’t take a cookie-cutter approach to education. Instead, we put your child first and pay attention to their individual differences.
Our Values
WE BELIEVE
That contemporary learning takes place within a challenging, nurturing and supportive environment.
WE BELIEVE
That we are enriched by our diverse community which is why we are committed to creating a space in which we can all feel respected and where we can learn from and about each other.
WE BELIEVE
That we have a shared humanity that inspires us to develop people who are of good character and understand our ethical responsibility as local and global citizens.
Our campuses
WOODLAND HEIGHTS
EDINBURGH CLOSE, CLAREMONT
Welcome to Woodland Heights, the original ISCT campus. Home to Key Stage 2 (Years 3-6) and High School (Years 7-12/13).

STRUBEN HOUSE
31 EDEN ROAD, CLAREMONT
Introducing our newest campus: Struben House. Held in trust by the Cape Town Child Welfare Society, Struben House opened its doors to Key Stage 1 (Years 1-2) in 2016. Some say it’s comparable in size and splendour to Downton Abbey. The children love the classrooms—designed just for them—and the beautiful garden with its majestic 500-year-old yellowwood tree at its centre.
