In most schools, sport is a fundamental part of education. Students compete in a wide range of disciplines including: Rugby, Football, Hockey, Cricket, Tennis, Swimming, Netball, Horse Riding, Athletics and Golf.

Gifted and talented children can peruse both their athletic and academic goals. They can be awarded a reduction in fees.

Certain schools specialise in particular sports. Stanford & Ackel has been successful in placing athletes at the appropriate schools for many years and can help you with your application.
