Independent Schools Association of South Africa

Bridge House School is a member of the Independent Schools Association of Southern Africa (ISASA) which is the largest, oldest and most inclusive independent school's association in the region.

ISASA's Vision is "a Southern Africa in which quality education is provided to all learners, the value of independent education in contributing to this goal is recognised, and a value-based, public-spirited community of diverse, high quality independent schools is developed."

ISASA's Mission is "to articulate the value of independent education, to promote the common interests of its members, and to provide professional services that will enhance their contribution to education in Southern Africa."

ISASA believes that independence is the right of a school to:

  • Follow its own distinctive mission (including its particular ethos, faith or philosophy)
  • Determine its learner admission and promotion policies
  • Choose its curriculum and exit examinations
  • Determine how it will be governed, financed and staffed
  • Manage its operations
