The Western Cape Education Department (WCED) announced that parents or guardians have until 17 June 2022 to confirm acceptance of placement at schools.
After the 17th of June, parents or guardians will only have three days to accept a placement if it is offered at a school.
Once placement at a school has been accepted, parents will have seven days to submit certified hardcopies to the school to confirm a place at the school.
How To Confirm Placement At School?
