Tafelberg Remedial School

About Tafelberg School & PTA

Tafelberg School is a public remedial school based in Bothasig, Cape Town, dedicated to supporting learners with Specific Learning Difficulties (SLD). The school provides specialised education for learners from Grade 1 to Grade 12, welcoming students from across the Cape Peninsula and from diverse socio-economic backgrounds.

With a strong focus on individual development, Tafelberg School offers a supportive learning environment where academic learning is complemented by therapeutic support, helping learners build confidence, resilience, and the skills needed to thrive both in school and beyond.

The Tafelberg Parent Teacher Association (PTA) plays an active role in supporting the school community through fundraising events and community initiatives. These events help raise essential funds to improve school facilities, resources, and opportunities for learners.

Recent PTA fundraising efforts have supported the development of the Foundation Phase Playground, an important space used not only for play but also by the school’s therapy staff to support learners’ developmental needs. Ongoing fundraising aims to further enhance this area by installing shade structures, additional seating, and learner-friendly outdoor spaces to ensure it can be used comfortably throughout the year.

Throughout the year, the PTA hosts a variety of community and school events, bringing together families, supporters, and local businesses to celebrate the school while raising funds that directly benefit the learners.

By attending a Tafelberg PTA event, you are not only enjoying a meaningful community experience — you are also helping create better opportunities and supportive spaces for learners who learn differently.

Together, we make a difference in every learner’s journey.
