Gauteng Grade 1 and 8 applications open in August

from Kaya 959 · host Phemelo Motene

Parents across Gauteng have less than two weeks to prepare for the opening of the 2027 online admissions system for Grade 1 and Grade 8. Applications open at 8am on 5 August 2026 and close at midnight on 4 September. Parents are urged to get their documents ready and remember that Grade R learners are not automatically placed in Grade 1 and must still apply online. Previous login details will also no longer be valid. Phemelo speaks to Gauteng Education MEC spokesperson Onwabile Lubhelwana about the application process, key dates and what parents need to know before applications open. www.kaya959.co.za · Kayafm
