North Riding College, a co-ed education independent school, will form part of Curro Holdings’ select school model. Within the North Riding College stable, the following schools have been included in the acquisition:
n North Riding College for Grade 000 to Grade 9 (with higher grades being phased in annually);
n Sharonlea Childcare for children from three months to two years old. This newly renovated campus opened its doors on 4 March
