Parents who applied to make place in grade R, 1 or 8 for their child for 2026 school years during on-time admission window. Friday, 30 May 2025.
Results will be available on the online entry system of WCED:
Parents who get a successful offer should then accept or reject these offers Before 17 June 2025And we encourage them to do so as soon as possible.
It is particularly important for parents that they receive offers from more than one schools. These parents are essentially ‘double parking’ on the system, which prevents schools from providing these places to other applicants until they make their choice.
If a parent has not confirmed their choice by 17 June 2025, the system will automatically confirm its top ranked option of the school that has offered a proposal. All other offers will be removed again, so that schools can offer places to other applicants.
The parents who do not receive a proposal on 30 May 2025 should not be disappointed. Thousands of additional proposals can be made to the parents who were not initially successful, as other parents confirm their choice and free the spaces.
We understand that this is a stressful time for the parents, and we will work hard to ensure that every learner whose parents have applied on time to keep them as soon as possible. – WCED Press statement
