School Management
The school follows a 8-day cycled Time Table. There are six 55-minute periods in each school day. The school is arranged with Teacher-Based Specialist Rooms. Hence learners move from class-to-class depending on the Time Table. This method is preferred as the subject teacher can host a range of equipment and learning aids in their Specialist Room - thus benefitting the learner. The movement is kept to minimal, however, by careful allocation of Specialised Rooms.
Learners are expected to wear a specialised uniform. Boys wear a grey trousers, white shirt and school tie (blue, with white stripes). Girls wear a check blue and white dress.
Learners are not allowed to carry cellphones to school and if found in their possession, it is confiscated and a fine may apply.
Due to Stanger Secondary's proximity to a tarred road and the fact that it has electricity and running water, it is classed a Quintile 4 fee-charging school. School fees in 2013 was set at ZAR1310-00. Learners from disadvantaged backgrounds may apply for a concession.

Famous quotes containing the words school and/or management:
“We are all adult learners. Most of us have learned a good deal more out of school than in it. We have learned from our families, our work, our friends. We have learned from problems resolved and tasks achieved but also from mistakes confronted and illusions unmasked. . . . Some of what we have learned is trivial: some has changed our lives forever.”
—Laurent A. Daloz (20th century)
“The care of a house, the conduct of a home, the management of children, the instruction and government of servants, are as deserving of scientific treatment and scientific professors and lectureships as are the care of farms, the management of manure and crops, and the raising and care of stock.”
—Catherine E. Beecher (1800–1878)
