Crawford International Pretoria

Crawford International Pretoria is an independent, co-educational school in Lukasrand, Pretoria, and one of nine Crawford International schools belonging to the Schools Division of the JSE-listed ADvTECH group. An “all-through” school, it educates children from pre-primary through to Grade 12 across a Pre-Primary, Preparatory and College on a large city campus, offering a modern, globally minded education with a strong focus on personalised, mentored learning.

The school combines international benchmarking with South African qualifications: its Preparatory School is an authorised International Baccalaureate (IB) World School offering the Primary Years Programme (PYP), while the College offers a wide, flexible subject choice and prepares students for the IEB National Senior Certificate, with senior students typically taking an eight-subject timetable. A counselling team supports subject choice, careers and tertiary applications (including for universities abroad), and MAP assessments track individual growth.

Crawford Pretoria has a notably diverse, locally representative student body – with pupils from more than 60 nationalities – and embeds leadership, service and environmental responsibility into school life as a registered Eco-School. Co-curricular life spans sport (football is the main boys’ code), culture and service.

The large campus offers strong facilities, including a heated 25-metre swimming pool and outdoor cricket nets, with the financial stability and ongoing investment that comes with being part of the ADvTECH group. The school follows an “all-inclusive” fee model; full fee and admissions details are available directly from the school.
