Grades 00-12. Mitchell House an Independent, Limpopo, English school in Polokwane, South Africa.

Social researchers claim that babies born into Generation Alpha will be the most formally educated generation in history and truly the millennial generation. It is therefore imperative to ask ourselves some urgent questions. These questions are a challenge to all of us in education but particularly so to us in South Africa are in the midst of a social revolution. If South Africa is no longer to be one of the most unequal societies in the world, we must be ready to confront change and to make costly compromises for the sake of a new and better society. During 2016, despite our relatively high fees, increasing numbers of parents have seen value (like Woolworths) in our offering. Every day, every teacher and employee at Mitchell House aims to add value to what we do here. The confidence that our parent community has in us is testified to by the number of applications we have had to enter the school. As this expansion is rolled out through the subsequent grades we feel that we will create a stronger school community and provide a much-needed boost to our society at large. We have embarked upon thoughtful initiatives like the introduction of e-textbooks, more flexible classroom spaces and a review of our homework policies. Having introduced Sepedi at JP and College levels, we have recently appointed a teacher for the IP. We will are offering History as an elective subject in the College for the first time and that will give our children a further opportunity to follow their passion. 2016 saw the completion of four new classrooms in the IP that has allowed us to be more sophisticated about how we do Science and Music and to return the IP to the IP Block. On the cultural side, we have continued to have three choirs and some 55 choristers attended a three-day residential workshop in partnership with the Drakensberg Boy's Choir. We always produce a play at one of the Phase levels and for the first time we were able to witness our Grade 12's practical movement studies. We even produced a South African High Jump winner in Davon Smit, a first for us. Our festivals at every level have been the envy of other Sports Departments who acknowledge that we lead in this sort of organization. Developing partnership with those around us has seen us provide advice to the Future Comprehensive School, to Siloe School for the Blind and to some 50 teachers sponsored by African Bank to develop reading resources. We are regularly visited by state and other schools to discover the systems that we have in place to ensure that we produce the best we can. We have provided a Spring Mathematics and Science residential camp for rural schools from Anglo-American mining communities. This has led to 9 children being provided with full boarding scholarships to attend Mitchell House for their full secondary education. Tamron was in the top 1% of nationwide learners in Afrikaans and Life Orientation and Tshego Rampedi was in the top 1% of learners in Business Studies. Without a competent and visionary Management team and Board of Governors these significant and bold initiatives would not have been possible. Our Mission With the help of Almighty God and founded on the high ideals of English Christian Culture, Mitchell House strives to help its learners to develop to the best of their ability, and guide their growing minds towards high ideals. Our Vision Underpinned by the school's core values: striving for excellence, personal integrity, respect for ourselves and others, discipline and responsibility, kindness and empathy: Mitchell House is committed to maintaining itself as an educational centre of excellence.
