According to law, all private schools must register at their local provincial educational departments.

All our schools are registered or are in the process of being registered. This process is time consuming, because facilities must be created and staff must be employed first before the process can commence.

All private schools must also be accredited by Umalusi, Council for Quality Assurancein General & Further Education and Training.

Curro guides its learners to not only attain and develop knowledge and skills, but to creatively understand the curriculum content in order to successfully apply it to their daily lives.

The curriculum applied by Curro is supplementary to the National Curriculum.
