Destiny Life Academy employs Christian principles in every aspect of school life to help pupils grow into the best versions of themselves.

The Umhlali-based high school offers small class sizes, affordability and top-quality teaching within the CAPS curriculum. A relationship with God, teachers, parents and the community is seen as a foundation on which successful adult lives can be built.

“Our investment in the children goes beyond the classroom; we want our pupils to leave as independent young adults, equipped to add value in their world,” said principal Colleen Moodley.

“We have a phenomenal set of teachers to make that happen, including head of art Dr Andrew Swanepoel, who recently completed his PhD.”

The school boasts a series of 100% matric pass rates and has developed a diverse alumni community over 16 years of operation.

“God has set the lives of our children in motion; it is our privilege to partner with parents to establish a strong foundation for their child’s future success.”
