No Learner Is Left Behind
At Hoërskool John Vorster, we believe that every learner deserves the opportunity to succeed. Our academic support programmes are designed to identify learners who need additional help and to provide them with targeted, compassionate assistance. From extra classes after school to specialised learning support, we walk alongside our learners every step of the way.
Mathematics Camp 2026
For the past 11 years, Hoërskool John Vorster's Grade 11 and 12 learners have had the privilege of attending the annual Mathematics Camp. The camp offers learners a valuable opportunity to focus on their Mathematics preparation in a calm and supportive environment.
During the camp, they work through previous years' question papers, revise thoroughly, and strengthen their knowledge and skills in preparation for the examinations. Alongside the academic focus, time is also set aside for relaxation, team building and exciting activities, making for a balanced and unforgettable experience.
This year the camp took place at Fleetwood River Camp near Parys. One of the highlights was the opportunity to go river rafting on the Vaal River. It was a special experience that not only provided great fun, but also valuable opportunities for teamwork, collaboration and personal growth. We are proud of our Vossies, who embraced this opportunity with so much enthusiasm and dedication.

Extra Classes
Subject-specific extra classes are offered before or after school, particularly in the lead-up to examinations. Schedules are communicated by subject teachers at the start of each term.
Remedial Teaching
Learners who are identified as needing additional academic support may be referred to our remedial teaching programme, which provides focused, small-group instruction in core subjects.
LSEN Support
Our Learning Support Educators (LSEN) work with learners who have identified learning barriers, providing individualised support plans and concessions where applicable.
Mentorship Programme
Senior learners and staff mentors are paired with learners who need academic and personal guidance. The mentorship programme fosters a culture of support and accountability.
