GDE says 29 862 yet to be placed in Gauteng schools

DURBAN - The number of unplaced pupils in Gauteng province had been reduced from 34 358 to 29 862, the Gauteng Education Department said on Wednesday.

This demonstrated a "steady increase" of pupils placed for the 2020 academic year, with numbers of placed pupils currently sitting at 250 309, or 88.51% of all applications received, said GDE spokesperson Steve Mabona. "Of the number placed, 134 680 were placed in Grade 1 and 115 629 in Grade 8. Total applications received is 310 350. Our officials are committed and working tirelessly to place these remaining 29 862 or 10.52% of unplaced pupils by 30 November 2019.""We will announce on how they will be assisted in due course. We will currently not be able to accommodate those parents who didn’t apply until we place all outstanding pupils.
