In 1875, the purchase of a plot of land for the construction of a school by the St. Martini parish in Cape Town took place and eight years later, the German St. Martini School was founded in 1883. Even before the First World War, the German government began to provide financial aid. After the defeat in the war and the loss of the German colonies, the German School Association Cape Town became the sponsor of the school in 1930.
In 1961 the name was changed to Deutsche Schule Kapstadt (DSK). Then the move into the new building, largely financed by the Federal Republic of Germany, began. In 1964, the first students successfully passed their matriculation examinations (South African school-leaving certificate "Senior Certificate" after grade 12) at the DSK. In 1978, the Arthur Painczyk Sports Field was inaugurated; in 1981, the DSK opened its doors to pupils of all demographic groups. The 1983 opening of the new swimming pool coincided with the 100th anniversary celebration. In 1984, the construction of the science classrooms began, and in 1987, the English stream was created.
The German International School Cape Town (Deutsche Internationale Schule Kapstadt, DSK) is a German international school.
