South Africa’s most expensive schools have adjusted <\/a>their fee structures for 2015, and are now more expensive than ever.<\/p>\n

With an annual fee of R219,500, Hilton College in Kwa-Zulu Natal remains South Africa\u2019s most expensive private school.<\/p>\n

This reflects a 5% increase on 2014’s fees (R209,000) and is below the national CPI of 5.8%.<\/p>\n

South Africa’s second most expensive school, MichaelHouse, has joined Hilton as one of the only two schools in the country that has an annual fee exceeding R200,000 per student.<\/p>\n

The fees listed below are what parents can expect to pay for a full senior year at some of South Africa\u2019s most elite private schools, including boarding, at 2015 rates.<\/p>\n

In light of the recent announcement of matric results for 2014 (both NSC and IEB), it may be pertinent to note that every school listed below achieved a grade 12 pass rate of 100%.<\/p>\n

More notably, the schools also achieved a bachelor pass rate (qualifying to study towards a degree) between 83% and 100%, averaging 96% amongst the schools analysed.<\/p>\n
