ADMISSIONS PROCESS

Admissions to all public schools in Gauteng are done via the GDE Admissions website www.gdeadmissions.gov.za.

King Edward VII School is a school that concentrates on the preparation of learners for academic tertiary education. The School recognises the educational need to differentiate in the education of learners, depending on what career paths are envisaged. The School thus reserves the right to advise parents on the most suitable education for their children, taking into account ability, interest, etc, as well as practical issues such as distance from home to the most suitable school.

DAY SCHOLARS

Application process

  1. All parents applying for a space in Grade 8 needed to do so via the GDE Admissions web page on www.gdeadmissions.gov.za.
  2. Once parents have successfully registered and applied through the GDE, parents need to submit the required documentation to the School as part of the admissions process.
  3. Application forms are to be accompanied by the following.
  • Latest school report
  • Copy of birth certificate
  • Proof of residence or place of work in the area (utility bill, lease agreement, proof of rent)
  • Copy of parent’s or legal guardian’s identity document

Receipt of application will be given at the point of documentation submission. Application Forms 2024

Application process

All parents applying for a weekly boarding space in Grade 8 need to have completed the expression of interest form from August in their son’s Grade 6 year.

In terms of our Weekly Boarding Applications, these are done privately and in conjunction with the GDE. The School is allowed to screen and interview potential candidates based on their academic and sporting prowess, their leadership capabilities, disciplinary record, social cohesion and level of independence. Preference is also given to boys in Gauteng who live far away from the School for whom weekly boarding is a necessity. Should your son meet these criteria, we will contact you for an interview.

Please note that completing the expression of interest form does not guarantee an interview.

Application for Grade 8 thereafter follows the same procedure as for day scholars, via the GDE Admissions web page on www.gdeadmissions.gov.za.
