Students from Grade 5 up to 6th Form are welcome, and already pupils from as far afield as Lusaka, Mazubuka and even DR Congo have taken the opportunity to Join Simba International School. The original Tau House opened its doors in January 1998. Its acquisition came as a result of an increasing demand from families outside of Ndola who wished to enroll their children in the school but required a reliable, safe and friendly atmosphere in which their children could live and study. The facilities have proved extremely popular and have outgrown the original site. Accomodation for the students is in the form of both single and shared study bedrooms which are attractively furnished and all with ensuite bathrooms.
Guards are on duty at all times when the students are present.
Our houseparents have grown-up children of their own and so are used to living with children and young adults. Once a week there is a house meeting at which the students are encouraged to speak their minds. As a fundamental part of the school, Tau House receives the full administrative, social, financial and disciplinary support of the Ndola Education Trust Board. Prep times are frequently discussed and sometimes altered but the duration of prep is sacrosanct. Our house parents are fully trained and experienced teachers who teach at Simba, assistance with prep is only a question away.
