The Educational Studio (TES) is redefining learning by tailoring education to meet the needs of every child.

The college offers hybrid learning and teaching methods that cater to each pupil’s unique learning style and pace, ensuring they reach their full potential. Whether you are seeking full-time, part-time or online education, TES provides flexible solutions for every learner.

With the motto “From cradle to career,” the college has maintained a 99.9% matric pass rate since opening in 2018. With only 10-12 pupils per class, TES promotes a personalised approach to education.

Pupils can choose from the CAPS (Curriculum and Assessment Policy Statement), Cambridge International or GED (General Educational Development) curricula. Classes run Monday to Friday, from 8am to 1.30pm, for Grades 6-12. On Fridays, additional academic support is provided to help students stay on track with their studies.

This accredited alternative school offers tuition from R4 500 to R5 000 per month, excluding external costs such as exam fees.

Whether you are looking to explore a new approach to learning, enhance academic performance or pursue a specific career goal, TES is ready to support you every step of the way.
TES is the largest private tuition provider on the North Coast.

Pupils attend tutoring sessions between 1pm and 7pm, and with over 150 students attending each week, learning is made easier and more accessible.

Founder Dane Padayachee, who holds a degree in pure applied chemistry and education studies, was recently named first runner-up in the 2025 Entrepreneur Competition hosted by the iLembe Chamber of Commerce. He said the award recognises the dedication and effort the TES team invests to ensure the college’s ongoing success.

“Everyone who has a business or is looking to start one should enter this programme, it is life changing,” said Padayachee.
