Science or Computer group in Grade 9? A simple guide for parents

What each Matric group leads to, which one suits your child and how to decide together.

By Mr. Kamran Bhatti (sample author) | Friday 9 October

In Grade 9 every student chooses a group: Science (with Biology) or Computer Science. Both are good choices. The right one depends on your child's interests and plans after Matric.

Choose Science (Biology) if

  • Your child wants to study medicine, dentistry or pharmacy
  • They enjoy living things and learning by reading
  • They plan FSc Pre-Medical after Matric

Choose Computer Science if

  • Your child enjoys logic, puzzles and computers
  • They plan ICS, FSc Pre-Engineering or IT
  • They like hands-on practical work

Still not sure?

Book a counselling meeting with the Vice Principal. We look at your child's Grade 8 results and talk it through with you and your child.
