High School
A Private High School in Pretoria East
Principal's Welcome
It is with gratitude and a deep sense of responsibility that I step into the role of High School Principal at Tyger Valley College. This school has been my professional home for many years—a place where I have grown as an educator, worked alongside dedicated colleagues, partnered with committed parents, and supported remarkable young people. Taking on this role is not the start of something new for me, but the continuation of a journey we have been walking together.
I would like to acknowledge and thank Mr Michael Schwartz for his steady, courageous, and visionary leadership. His guidance, mentorship, and belief in this school have left a strong foundation on which we will continue to build.
What matters most to me is our people. Every learner who walks through our gates deserves to feel seen, to belong, to be challenged, and to thrive. Every teacher deserves to feel supported and valued. Every parent deserves a school they can trust. These principles will guide every decision I make.
I believe strongly in continuity and stability, while also embracing thoughtful and purposeful growth—growth that strengthens our academics, nurtures character, deepens our sense of community, and protects the culture that makes Tyger Valley College special.
As we enter this next chapter together, please know that my leadership will be guided by integrity, openness, and collaboration. My door will always be open, and I am committed to listening, working together, and leading in the best interests of our learners and staff.
I am proud to serve this community and look forward to all that we will continue to build together at Tyger Valley College.

Academics
Our vision is to develop the full potential of each pupil and to create lifelong students who are confident, compassionate and multi-skilled. We want our pupils to fulfill their potential and reach their dreams.
Individual attention is given to pupils and this is made possible by having smaller classes. All teachers are available daily after school for any pupil who may be struggling in a subject. A homework venue is provided from Monday to Thursday after school. In addition, the school has a resident Educational Psychologist who deals with pupils who are experiencing learning difficulties and who require continual support. Parents are notified and communicated with through emails and parent-teacher consultations.
