This school has been over capacity
If you are trying to place a child here, one fact matters more than a phone number. In January 2024 roughly 111 Grade 8 learners were being taught in the school hall, with one teacher handling two groups in the same space, while mobile classrooms were brought in as relief.
The school carries around fourteen hundred learners. Treat a place here as contested rather than assumed, and plan the application accordingly.
- Apply in the Western Cape’s official window and name alternatives. A single application to an over subscribed school is how learners end up unplaced in January.
- If no school places your child, that is the district’s responsibility, not the school’s. The WCED line will direct you to the district office, and that is who must act.
- Being on a waiting list is not a placement. Ask in writing whether the learner is placed or listed, and keep the reply.
- Overcrowding is a district and provincial matter, so raise it there. A school cannot create classrooms it has not been given.
Fees, reports and escalation
- A learner may not be refused admission over unpaid fees, and a report or transfer may not be withheld because of a fee debt.
- Ask whether the school is a no fee school before assuming a cost, and ask about exemption if fees are charged.
- Subject choices happen in Grade 9 for entry into Grade 10, and they set what a learner can study afterwards.
- Corporal punishment is unlawful, and assault on a learner is a police matter rather than an internal school issue.
