Die Fakulteit is a South African television comedy series directed and written by George van Rooyen, with executive producers Marno Koen and Michael van Zyl. This original e.tv series, produced by CoolerBox Brothers for eExtra, stars a talented cast including Bibi du Preez, Carien Botha, Abel Knobel, Tabita de Jager, Carl Trautman, Leigh Ann Fourie, Tené Minderon and Zoricke Snyman.
Set in the fictional Hoërskool Oos in Johannesburg, Die Fakulteit follows a group of former students who find themselves back at school, only this time as teachers. They are all grown up, but high school life still has a way of testing them. From classroom chaos to staffroom drama, they face familiar teenage challenges with a dose of adult responsibility and plenty of comic surprises.
With sharp humour, relatable characters and a fresh look at South African school life, Die Fakulteit brings nostalgia, laughter and heart to the screen. It stands as one of e.tv’s standout local comedies and a true showcase of CoolerBox Brothers storytelling at its best — bold, funny and proudly South African.
