Collegiate Girls High School (Gqeberha)

Okay so Collegiate Girls High School in Parsons Hill, Gqeberha. First of all, the name says "Girls" but the data says co-educational. Broe, they could not even decide what kind of school they are. That is like a braai where nobody brings meat. You showed up, the vibe is confusing, and everyone is just standing around holding a Coke. 673 learners and 50 educators giving you a 13.5 to 1 ratio, which is actually not bad at all, but listen, Gqeberha is not exactly known for things running smoothly, so I respect the effort. The Eastern Cape education system has been through things that would make the WCED cry into its paperwork, and these guys are still standing in Parsons Hill doing their thing. Respect, genuinely. Now that 100% matric pass rate though. ONE HUNDRED PERCENT. In this economy. In the Eastern Cape. While load shedding is out here eating everyone's study time like a hungry taxi rank eats your Friday afternoon. Either those kids are absolute legends, or someone at the school had a very serious conversation with the markers, and we are not asking which one it was. We are just saying well done and moving on quickly. Overall verdict: A school that cannot decide if it is for girls or everyone, located in a city that cannot decide if it is Port Elizabeth or Gqeberha, but somehow pulling a 100% pass rate like it has something to prove, and honestly, it does.
