The school is Oakwood Junior Primary School, and it is a private school, at 28 Robinson Road, Queenstown (Komani), Eastern Cape. It falls in the Chris Hani West education district. It is small, with roughly 140 learners and 7 teachers.
ContactDetails.co.za is an independent directory and is not the school.
Private school, so different rules apply
This matters more than the name difference. An independent school is not governed by the public school fee rules that most parents have in mind, and the differences are practical.
- Fees are contractual. The statutory fee exemption process that applies at public schools does not apply here. What binds you is the enrolment contract you sign.
- Read the notice period before you sign. A term’s notice for withdrawal is common at independent schools, and parents are frequently billed for a term after the child has left.
- Admission is at the school’s discretion rather than by provincial placement, so there is no district placement route into it.
- The province still matters for registration and complaints. Independent schools must be registered with the provincial department, and Chris Hani West is the district for this one.

Queenstown is now Komani
The town was renamed, and both names remain in everyday use, on road signs, in postal addresses and in official records. Older documents say Queenstown; newer ones may say Komani.
Search under both when you are looking for the school or for records, and give both if a clerk cannot find the entry. They are one town, not two.

Frequently asked questions
Is Oakwood a government school?
No. It is an independent (private) junior primary school, so fees are contractual and admission is at the school’s discretion.
Can I apply for a fee exemption?
The statutory exemption process applies to public schools, not independent ones. Your enrolment contract governs the fees.
Is Komani the same as Queenstown?
Yes, one town under two names, both still in use.
