Parents or guardians who still have not applied for their child to be in Grade 1 or Grade 8 in the Western Cape for the 2025 school year, do not have enough time.
The closing date for online admissions for these two grades closes at midnight on Friday.

News, the Western Cape Education Department (WCED), said it received about 94
316 applications. This is 13 733 more from Wednesday’s update.
‘’That is both Grade 1 and 8.
We received approximately 5 000 applications for Grade 8 between Wednesday and
Thursday. So last push!,’’ said Bronagh Hammond, WCED spokesperson.
‘’We are appealing to all
Grade 7 parents who have learners that are going to grade 8 next year, to
ensure they apply online today. This is the last day that you can apply online for
the on time application. At midnight tonight, it will be allocated as a late
application. So please ensure you apply on time, don’t wait! Get your documents
ready now, and apply today,’’ she added.
Hammond says applying on time
means applicants will be considered in the first batch of the School Governing
Body (SGB) sorting.
