2027: GRADE 8 APPLICATION PROCESS

Please note that the 2027 Grade 8 online application process is not yet open. The official application dates will be announced by the Gauteng Department of Education (GDE) through the MEC, Mr Lebogang Maile.

We kindly advise all parents and guardians to remain patient and wait for the official announcement. Once confirmed, the application period will be widely communicated through:

  • Television and radio news
  • Official GDE social media platforms
  • The GDE online admissions system: www.gdeadmissions.gov.za
  • School communication channels, including our website, D6 Communicator, and social media pages

Important reminders for parents:

  • Applications must be completed online via the official GDE admissions website. No manual or paper application forms are available at TGHS.
  • Ensure that all required supporting documents (e.g. learner birth certificate, latest report card, parent/guardian ID, and proof of residence in the parent/guardian’s name) are ready and certified in advance to avoid delays.
  • Apply as early as possible once the system opens, as placement is subject to GDE regulations and school capacity.
  • Be sure to select schools within your feeder zone where applicable, as placement priority may depend on location and availability.

School Fees (2026):

  • 2026 school fees: R32,500 per learner
  • Please note that a projected increase of approximately ±10% is expected for the 2027 academic year (subject to approval by the School Governing Body at the AGM later in the year).

Admissions Policy:

Admissions to the school are conducted strictly in accordance with Gauteng Department of Education (GDE) regulations. Final placement decisions are made by the GDE, not the school.

We encourage all parents to stay informed and regularly check official communication platforms to ensure they do not miss important updates.

Further updates will be shared as soon as official information becomes available.
