Sam Mdakane, a Reddam House Umhlanga student who received five distinctions, has triumphed over adversity. He was discovered singing in a rural school by Georgie Carter, who went on to become his benefactor, getting permission from his grandmother to pay for him to attend the Drakensberg Boys Choir.

Sam joined Reddam House Umhlanga in Grade 10 with continued support from the Carters, and has gone on to excel both academically, achieving five distinctions in his matric results, in a leadership position equivalent to Head Boy, and in the arts. Sam was a member of the KZN Youth Choir and Youth Orchestra and has been accepted to study music at TUKS. His ambition is to become the first black conductor in South Africa.

Says Ravi Nadasen, CEO of Inspired Education Group Africa, “Congratulations to the incredible class of 2023 matriculants! Their outstanding results are a testament to their hard work, dedication, and resilience and a reflection of the exceptional education provided by the entire team at Inspired Schools. We are immensely proud of their achievements and know that they have a bright future ahead. We are honoured to have been a part of their journey.”
