It was originally established in Somerset West but later moved to its current permanent location in the Strand. HistoryFalse Bay High School[1] was founded by Herman L Janse van Rensburg on 16 January 1999. The school started with six students. The first venue was 4 Loerie Street, Somerset West, Western Cape, South Africa. By the end of the year there were 26 students in the school. The original name of the school was Helderberg Private School. As there are other schools that use "Helderberg" in their names the Western Cape Education Department asked the owners to change the name of the school.[2] Since 2000 the school has been known as False Bay High School.[3] During January 2000 the school moved to 5 Almeida Street, Strand, Western Cape when the owners of the school bought the new venue. As the city council did not give permission to use this address as a school the school moved to a rented venue at 79 Andries Pretorius Street in January 2003.{{citation needed|date=October 2014}} The school moved to 37 Edison Street in September 2004. Once again the school had to move. The plot had a clause in the title deed against running any business from it and the minister of environmental affairs of the Western Cape was not prepared to give permission to lift this clause.{{citation needed|date=October 2014}} The school then moved to 27 Van der Merwe Street, Strand in January 2007. The city council approved this venue. The founder of the school and his wife bought this big house from the Nederduits Gereformeerde Kerk Suider-Strand.[4] The church used this house as a rectory. The founder of the school lived in this rectory for thirteen years as a child. His father was the minister of this church until 1977.{{citation needed|date=October 2014}} The youngest son of the headmaster, Ian Janse van Rensburg,[5] designed the first website of the school while he was still a student of the school. The current website is also one of Ian's designs. The founder has been the headmaster since January 1999.{{citation needed|date=October 2014}} SizeThe school limits the number of students to 40 full-time students. The school is dual medium - Afrikaans and English. The school has a Christian ethos, but does accept and respect students of other religions. The school has a caring approach, and caters for all types of students.{{citation needed|date=October 2014}} Due to the size of the school it does not offer extramural sport. Some of the students participate in sport at other schools and clubs. EducationFalse Bay High School's curriculum is in line with the curriculum as prescribed by the National Department of Basic Education in South Africa. The application of the curriculum is monitored by the Western Cape Education Department. The school teaches the prescribed GET Curriculum in grades 8 and 9. The school teaches the following academic subjects from grades 10 to 12:
