Assumption Convent School

General information

Assumption Convent School is a private Catholic day School for girls from Grades 00-12 situated in Johannesburg. The school was founded in 1946 by the Missionary Sisters of the Assumption.

We promise your daughter an education that opens doors – spiritual, academic, social and vocational – in a caring, nurturing environment.

In addition to what all top independent schools offer - rigorous academic study and numerous sporting and cultural activities - we are a Catholic Girls School. Being Catholic ensures a solid grounding in Christian values, helping all our pupils (Catholic and non-Catholic) to reach their full potential and become caring citizens. Being a girls only school will enhance your daughter’s learning experience. This is supported by extensive research which shows that single-sex schools often produce superior academic results, and consistently outperform their co-educational counterparts. Single-sex schools also allow coaches to develop sporting skills more effectively.

Despite fierce competition from other independent girls schools, we continue to grow and thrive. Our small classes, dedicated staff and excellent facilities - all offered at an affordable price - makes Assumption Convent School one of the sought after girls schools in Johannesburg.
