Whether you start your journey with us in Pre-Primary or in Grade 1, or even at one of the higher grades in the Primary School, it is our desire to see you move successfully into our High School in order for you to Matriculate.
As such, it is our vision at Pinnacle College Linden, to provide a sound academic footing that prepares you for High School and beyond. We understand and celebrate that the success of our Matriculants is grounded in the excellent academic programme delivered in the developmental years as of Grade 0, which is balanced with our core extra mural sporting and cultural offering.
Our school focuses on literacy, language, communication, thinking and competencies that will enable our students to succeed in life, to study at a tertiary level and to function well in the global economy. Thinking skills, research skills, self-management skills, communication skills and social skills are all developed, along with academics, to ensure that we help to produce a group of smart, educated, well-balanced and socially responsible students each and every year, grade after grade.
