As an Old Johannian who matriculated from Clayton House in 2001, I take immense pride in the ongoing academic brilliance of St John’s College. Over the years, the College has cemented its reputation as a beacon of excellence, not just among boys' schools but also in comparison to top-performing girls' schools across South Africa.
St John’s College is proud of all our young men and their results in their IEB final examinations, many of whom exceeded their personal bests.
Meet some of our top achievers as they share their matric journey.
