Parents have been queuing outside the Gauteng Department of Education district offices, south of Johannesburg, since the early hours of Monday morning, desperate to find schools for their children.

Gauteng Department of Education says 276 564 Grade 1 and 8 online applicants have been successfully placed [File image]

For parents like Zweli Nhlapo – his child was placed, however, it was at a school east of Johannesburg, while they live south of the city. “I’m very much frustrated, so much frustrated because my child is sitting at home and doesn’t know which school she’s going to. Her peers are all going to private schools. Now because I cannot afford a private school now I must suffer. My child must be placed 12 kilometers away from home and I must suffer with transport. I must also worry about my child’s safety while there’s a school next to my home.

Why is every single government department a crap show! Year on year same crap no accountability the traffic department machines are broken and we are levied with more taxes! Can someone please please come to our rescue. People you gotta vote the MYANC out of power

🕯️🕯️🕯️For Lefusi to allow Gauteng school to do own admission because wow💔💔

Now this is something I would march for. Go to the VIP houses. March in their streets. Their children go to private schools on the TAX payers money. Our kids have no school to go to. The Gov should have started building years ago and not putting the money in their pockets

Who ever introduced this online system he will never 👎 see heaven. This ppl they don’t do their jobs they hide behind this nonsense call online registration. This must boycotted scrap this useless thing

Where is that school panjaasa built on the mudflats

My first school in Soweto, is unused. Empty and lawns and gardens in very bad shape.

The rise of online schools will start in earnest
