South Peninsula High School is a secondary school in Diep River, a suburb of Cape Town, South Africa. As of 2010 it had 1500 students.[1] The school celebrated its 60th anniversary in 2010, after opening in 1950.

The school is twinned with Great Sankey High School, in Warrington, England and co-runs an exchange programme for staff and students with GSHS each year. South Peninsula High School accepts many students from historically disadvantaged areas in Cape Town including Mitchells Plain, Grassy Park, Lotus River, Heathfield, Strandfontein and Retreat. Prominent alumni from the school include Zain Davids of the Blitzbokke, Agmad Ceres from Ajax CT and comedian Riaad Moosa. The school's 60 year old buildings were recently replaced with state of the art infrastructure and facilities in 2017. Zeid Baker is currently deputy principal of the school.
