The Gauteng Department of Education has extended the closing date for 2024 online admission applications for grades 1 and 8 to July 21.
“We have seen it fit to give parents and guardians more time to apply and upload or submit documents at schools. We are also proud of having processed over 400,000 applications within a week. This is a testament to our system’s improvement and the demand for the quality education which Gauteng offers,” said Gauteng education MEC Matome Chiloane.However, the department said it had noticed some parents preferred submitting their documents at schools.
“As such, this extension will give them an opportunity to submit documents after the school recess, which is due to commence from June 23 until July 17. Parents now have until July 21 to apply and will be allowed to upload or submit documents until July 28,” said the department's spokesperson Steve Mabona.
