High School

The Online School’s academic gravitas is firmly rooted in the
exemplary educational tradition of Durban Christian Centre
School in Durban. DCCS has been successfully educating
young minds since 1999. Committed to community and
nation-building, our approach has always been to embrace
a global culture of innovation, agility and access to learning
through technology

With Online School, we’ve taken learning into the digital
world. The Internet is an effective medium that we use to
extend our student community to those outside Durban
with campuses in Hillcrest and Phoenix.
The online system offers freedom, independence and
accountability – but in a safe and stress-free environment.
Add to that the fact that your child is getting expert tuition
from specialist teachers, and the online schooling option
becomes a compelling alternative to the traditional classroom.
