The school doors were opened in 1940 by the first headmaster, Mr. Claude Mullan. It was named SPRINGS HIGH as it was situated in the mining community of Springs and also because it was co-educational which consisted of BOTH girls and boys. It was built to accommodate 400 learners.
Our school, for obvious reasons, is one of the most prestigious and sought after schools in Gauteng. Boys' High is not just another building of brick and mortar, it is a way of life.
