Die Hoërskool Punt is ‘n gevestigde skool wat sedert 1921 in diens van die gemeenskap van Mosselbaai staan met die strewe om die kind as geheel te ontwikkel.
Die skool is ‘n publieke skool. Die onderrignorme en -vereistes word deur die Wes-Kaapse Onderwysdepartement bepaal. Die belange van ouers word op plaaslike vlak behartig deur ‘n Beheerliggaam waarvan die meerderheid lede deur ouers uit eie geledere verkies word.
Die skool beskik oor die dienste van ‘n toegewyde, energieke en ten volle gekwalifiseerde personeel.
Die skool word in ‘n moderne gebou gehuisves wat die mooiste uitsig in die land het.
Naas die gewone georganiseerde bedrywighede word sporttoere, leierskampe en opvoedkundige uitstappies gereeld onderneem.
‘n Bedrywige en dinamiese Ouer-Onderwysersvereniging lewer ‘n waardevolle bydrae tot verskillende projekte in die skool.

Regular school attendance is a prerequisite for progress. Therefore it is of great importance to observe the following:

Appointments (of any nature) during school hours must be avoided as far as possible.
The Department of Education requires that learners attend the school until the last day of each term. It is expected of principals to make the necessary arrangements to ensure this. Therefore, it will be to no avail to contact the principal to request leave of absence. The same applies to learners who are absent too frequently and without acceptable excuses during the term.
The principal must be informed in writing of the circumstances which necessitated absence on any specific day. After having been absent, a learner must first announce himself/herself at the office before joining his/her class again.
No learner may leave the school grounds if he/she is not signed out by his parent/guardian.
