Frustrated parents slam online application 'mess'

City Press has learnt that some school principals and district officials were manipulating gaps in the system to place their own children, or those of friends and relatives, in schools.An informed source told City Press that the department needed to ensure it had resolved these problems before it opened admissions for next year.

He alleged that it was not only principals and other staff who manipulated the system, but also district officials. However, Gauteng department of education spokesperson Steve Mabona denied that the system had been manipulated, saying only that, since its inception, the department had been attempting to enhance it for optimum efficacy.“We wish to reiterate that our main challenge is capacity, rather than the system itself. We normally receive more applications than space allocations at our schools during the application period.

This year alone, the department only placed some pupils in March – a month after schools had reopened. “It’s just been a mess, especially because they haven’t been communicating with us. And financially, I might suffer. If I don’t get my son into that R4 000-per-month school I’m eyeing, I’ll have to take him to a more expensive one – and I don’t have the money for that. We’d have more time to find a suitable school if they opened the admission system now,” he said.

He said the department already had information about pupils who were in Grade 7, including their report cards and profiles, and all it would now be doing was moving those pupils’ files to schools within reach of their homes.

It has been a mess from Day 1. Each year there are excuses but a mess it remains. There's just so much cover-up can be accepted.

He's out of that direct mess now. Always knew he would make it to parliament as a minister.

Surely we can’t keep having the same thing every year? Either Lesufi and team aren’t implementing lessons learnt, or our parents continue to struggle with this seemingly very easy process. Or is it?

True that and as ordinary citizens we were denied space for our children although the km radius allowed monument high school in Krugersdop

Words alone won’t express how thankful I’m recommending you all to you shantelll_142 .....,investing with you has been a good opportunity for me and my family I just received my profit of R30,500 within five days of investment shantelll_142

and the best that Lesufi can do is to revert to blaming apartheid even after 27 years of the cadres running education ahh wait ... that also explains why we are at the bottom of every education KPI world-wide

Online application is totally not working.

In times like this where things will be very difficult I’ll advise people invest in $stocks or binary with Lisaberry1426 so the economic decisions will not affect your finances. She's a good woman and I have not had any problems investing with Lisaberry1426 early this year

I saw several people testifying of making so much money with the help of shantelll_142 on Bitcoin option trade and I decided to give a try and now I'm glad now she helped me and my colleagues to make R40,000 in one week, thank you for transparency and trust.

As per the past 20years lesufi and the anc/alliance structures haven't built new schools to accommodate the growing population, obviously they will put futher pressure on already over utilized structures.

I feel sorry for parents who has to put the education of their kids in the incompetent hands of the vainglorious Lesufi

The mere fact that there is an application “system” is a failure of GautengProvince government. Lesufi is a prime example of an incompetent deployed cadre.
