We appreciate the time you are taking to view a small but unique school more than traditions and more than just knowledge. Amedeo has evolved from the needs of many children, needs that require meeting if we, as educators, expect to deliver a competent new adult generation. It is through these needs that Amedeo has been born. A Christian-based haven for real learning and growth!

Amedeo is an exclusive, upmarket, co-educational, preparatory school situated in the heart of Sandhurst in Sandton. We offer a progressive, unique approach to education upheld by Christian principles and beliefs. Class sizes are small, ensuring a high degree of individual attention. At Amedeo, we ensure that knowledge is consolidated, and that children’s learning is extended to maximise their potential. Our team of educational specialists have been carefully selected to enrich the learning experience of each child. The school is calm and purposeful and we understand the importance of growing, in each student, a positive self-esteem. Happy, confident children, whose intellectual and emotional needs are met, are most likely to reach their full potential academically.

We are committed to providing a stimulating, nurturing learning environment where learners ask questions, research topics and formulate their own frameworks and concepts related to the various subjects taught.

Leadership: At Amedeo, we believe that each learner has leadership potential, which is encouraged and developed.

Independence: Essential to the enquiring mind, independence is necessary to develop a love of learning, and will help to establish the confident disposition all adults need in their quest to become the people they were born to be.

Responsibility: We encourage freedom of expression and a proactive attitude, tempered by responsibility.

Balance: Amedeo’s balanced curriculum satisfies our pupils’ physical, intellectual, emotional, creative and spiritual requirements. They are given a solid foundation from which to grasp life’s opportunities, and to excel.

Collaboration: Amedeo encourages teamwork and teaches by example, encouraging collaborative partnerships between staff, parents and pupils.

Respect and Empathy: Respect and empathy for people, different cultures and the environment are fundamental.

Humility: Humility is a powerful quality that is frequently misunderstood. Humble people are powerful and secure enough not to indulge in self-promotion. They are not vain.

To have inspired, happy and accomplished learners, who are truly independent and valued as individuals – young minds that will be the game–changers of the future!
