LISTEN: Gauteng Education extends placement period until 10 December
The Gauteng Department of Education in Gauteng has announced that the
deadline for the placement period for online admissions for Grade 1 and Grade 8
has been extended to 10 December.
“Today, 30 November 2021, was initially the last day to place learners, but due to the massive delay in some parents accepting our offers, the GDE regrets to inform unplaced parents that we are extending the placement period deadline,” says spokesperson Steve Mabona.
According to Mabona a total of 121 778 pupils remain without a desk for next year.
“It must be indicated that, we have received a high volume of applications which have applied pressure to our school’s capacity to accommodate learners.”
