Curriculum

The Eswatini national curriculum

Pupils follow the Eswatini national curriculum from Grade 8 through Form 5. The lower forms lay broad foundations; from Form 4 each pupil chooses one of three examination streams — Commercials, Sciences or Arts. Every pupil studies a minimum of eight subjects in addition to Life Skills.

Grade 8: Foundation year — broad curriculum and Catholic formation.
Form 2 & 3: Core subjects with subject options introduced.
Form 4 & 5: Examination years across three streams.

Note: the Grade 8 syllabi for 2026 are still being fine-tuned; final subject lists will be confirmed when the school opens.
