The Chatsworth mix up
This school is frequently listed against Chatsworth, and it is worth correcting because the two places are a real distance apart and fall to different offices. Isipingo and Chatsworth are separate areas south of Durban. Orient Hills sits in Isipingo.
If you are looking for a school in Chatsworth, this is not it. The Umlazi district covers this school, and giving the wrong area to a district office is how a records request goes nowhere.

Getting records years later
A large share of enquiries to a primary school are not from parents at all, but from former learners needing proof of schooling for a job, a bursary or an identity document.
- Primary schools do not issue certificates. What they hold is an admission register and progress records, which is usually enough to prove attendance.
- Go through the district if the school cannot find you, since older registers are sometimes archived away from the school.
- Give the years you attended and the name you were registered under. A changed surname is the most common reason a record cannot be traced.
- Matric certificates come from the Department of Basic Education, not from any school, and are a separate application.
