Welcome to Orion College
Assisted Learning with Remediation
25 Years of Excellence
“A small school doing big things”
Our Story
Orion College was born from the Venter family’s vision more than 25 years ago—to create a nurturing school environment with small classes and integrated therapy for learners who face challenges in traditional mainstream settings.
More than just a school, Orion is a haven for remedial education, where each learner’s path is thoughtfully tailored to support personal growth and academic success. With a maximum of 12 learners per class, three specialised learning streams, and integrated therapy services, we are committed to personalising education and helping every learner reach their full potential.
Congratulations to our Class of 2024!

Your success is not only a reflection of your individual efforts but also of the support and guidance from our incredible faculty, staff, and the entire school community.

Great Teaching
Dear staff of Orion College, thank you all for being Beth’s teachers and Mentor’s. I am elated at her Bachelor’s pass, and I pray the Lord prospers and promotes you all. You have always been so positive ever since Beth started at Orion in Grade 10, Term 3, for being parents when we cannot be there and for not going easy on them so that they can achieve their best potential. We thank you and bless you all.
