Auxiliary lessons are offered in both Mathematics and Physical science after school. The school offers a variety of subjects to learners when they make their subject choices in Grade 9.The school has an extensive Awards Policy and recognizes pupils who exceed in academics, sports and cultural activities. Students receive merit certificates, half colours or full colours in all three activities based in their performance. Sports Union Awards, as well as the new Arts Academy awards, are put in place to ensure that students who excel in activities outside of school are recognised for their achievements.Academic and Cultural colours are in the form of blue, white and red cord which is sewn around the edge and pockets of the uniform blazer. Sports colours are in the form of maroon cord. Half colours and full colours recipients receive scrolls which are sewn on to the blazer. Colours Cum Laude and Honours Blazers are also awarded, but to learners who have excelled at a high level in their activity (e.g.: U16 South African Netball team, U16 KZN Softball Team).
