About Waterford Kamhlaba United World College of Southern Africa
Waterford Kamhlaba United World College of Southern Africa (WK UWCSA) was the first multiracial school in Southern Africa. The school had 16 students when it started; and today it has over 600 students representing 60 nationalities, taught by staff from 18 countries. Waterford’s earliest ideals of courage, leadership and equality remain at its core. The school provides opportunities for academic achievement, personal growth and leadership development for youth across Africa and the world.
Waterford Kamhlaba offers a challenging and transformational education through the International General Certificate of Secondary Education (IGCSE) and the International Baccalaureate Diploma (IB), taught by a cohort of very diverse, highly qualified and committed staff.
In 1981 Waterford joined the United World Colleges (UWC) movement, which is a global education movement that makes education a force to unite people, nations and cultures for peace and a sustainable future. It comprises a network of 18 international schools and colleges on four continents, short courses and a system of volunteer-run national committees in more than 155 countries.

Waterford Kamhlaba UWCSA is based in Mbabane, Swaziland. The city has a population of 95,000 and is the capital of Swaziland, a landlocked country with Mozambique to its northeast and South Africa bordering its south. The school was founded in 1963 as one of Africa’s first multi-racial schools, and its Kamhlaba title meaning ‘all of one world’ was conferred on the school in 1967 by His Majesty King Sobhuza II. Waterford offers education to Forms 1 to 5, with Form 5 sitting the International General Certificate of Secondary Education (IGCSE) qualification, followed by two years dedicated to the International Baccalaureate. The school is also a member of United World Colleges (UWC). The curriculum is taught in English, with additional languages offered including the native SiSwati.
Waterford Kamhlaba is one of Africa’s top schools, with students obtaining an average of 34 points in their International Baccalaureate exams, an average that equates to more than four A grades at A Level in the UK. Every student that graduates from Waterford at the IB level can obtain a scholarship to attend one of 90 universities in the US, including Harvard and Princeton, although many prefer to take up places around the world, including Oxford and Cambridge.
Values and vision
Waterford Kamhlaba UWCSA passionately believes that all young people must be given access to education of the highest standard to enable them to realise their potential. The school is proud to deliver that opportunity to disadvantaged yet talented African students through its Scholarship Programme.
