The Western Cape Education Department (WCED) has reminded parents and caregivers to apply for the 2023 school year.
Thursday marked the halfway mark for the 15 April 2022
deadline.
The WCED said that over 90 000 people have registered their
children thus far, of which, 43 000 are for Grade 8 enrolment.
‘’We want to thank all those that have applied timeously
and appeal to others that wish to apply for the next school year, to do so by
15 April 2022. Applying after this date could affect their choice of placement and
it will affect our planning,’’ said spokesperson Bronagh Hammond.
In making the process a bit easier, the WCED says parents
can apply via the department’s district offices, or the pop-ups by the WCED at
shopping malls and schools.
‘’Some schools have also communicated to parents within
their communities that they will be opening their labs for parents to apply,’’
added Hammond.
Parents can apply for: Grade R, 1 and 8. A transfer request
is required for learners in Grades 2-7 and Grades 9-12.
