The first school building where formal education took place, were already in use in 1859. The school building where Bredasdorp Primary School is situated today, was inaugurated in 1914. However, it was known as Bredasdorp High School at the time.

 

In 1942, Higher and Primary Bredasdorp separated from each other, but the high school was still accommodated in the same building until his High School was built in the 1950’s. Bredasdorp Primary enrolment showed strong growth over the years to about five hundred and fifty students today.

 

Although the vast majority of learners are Afrikaans speaking, it is a dual medium school. The staff consists of a strong group of highly skilled educators. This school has a proud tradition and has delivered several achievers on various grounds.
