Africa’s only full boarding school offering the two-year British A Level qualification

Since 2021, Hilton’s A-Level Pathway lets boys focus on what they love, developing true subject mastery and a lifelong love of learning.

A Levels at Hilton

Hilton College offers the globally recognised Cambridge and Pearson Edexcel A Level programme, which is an academically rigorous pathway that develops subject mastery, critical thinking, and independence. Students specialise in three to four subjects at a level comparable to first-year university study, opening doors to top universities worldwide while meeting South African matric exemption requirements. Ideal for academically adventurous learners, A Levels provide flexibility, international portability, and a strong foundation for academic success.

We give you and your son time to fully understand what we’re about and to think about whether ours is the right environment for him.

Your journey with us starts when your son is in his Grade 6 year

This is when we introduce our unique school to your son and family and get to know you. If you’ve registered your son, we’ll send you a detailed roadmap of the events leading up to enrolment. You can register your boy any time from the date of his birth. However, the actual enrolment process takes more than a year.

At Hilton, academic, musical, and athletic prowess isn’t everything

What matters more is that we are a ‘fit’. We guide families to ensure the fit is right for your son to thrive at Hilton College.

In Grade 6, we offer opportunities for your son to experience Hilton College. We invite you for an in-person meeting to get acquainted and to address any questions you may have.
