Gauteng Education MEC Chiloane praises smooth online application process for grades 1 & 8

The Gauteng Education Department has opened the online admissions period for learners enrolling for grades one and eight for the 2024 academic year.

The application period is set to close on 14 July.

The department has set up application centers in several communities across the province to assist parents with the application process.

MEC Matome Chiloane is in Winterveld, an area in the North of Pretoria plagued by poor connectivity and constant power outages, to brief communities about the benefits of the online applications.

He will also be assisting parents with the online application process.

Chiloane said there had been over 60,000 online applications since the portal opened at 8 AM.

According to Chiloane, the system has been working well and it hasn’t experienced any technical glitches.

“We are comfortable with the fact that parents who are on the system trying to register their children are probably happy now because the system is smooth,” he said.
