The teaching staff at Wynberg Girls’ High are committed to enabling students to achieve the very best that they can. Students are frequently encouraged to take responsibility for their own learning through projects and research and the average number in a class is 24 learners.

Expert assistance and tuition is given by the staff to students not only during regular teaching hours, but also outside of school hours in the form of clinics for those pupils who do not feel that they are reaching the goals they have set for themselves.
