WCED Western Cape Education Department throws my son away!
WCED does not take calls, does not respond to emails, won’t assist in placing my son at a high school. To date he does not have a high school placement for 2026! No one there is prepared to help. What will happen to him???

Received no feedback from wced Metro East regional
Hi, my complaint must please be referred to wced Metro East regional office in reference to a late admission application of my step son, for grade 4 in 2025. His sister was accepted and we were informed by the wced regional Metro East department that it will be a motivation for him to be accepted at Blackheath primary due to his sibling being there for 2025. We have received no feedback from the school or the wced. We need to plan around his uniform and stationary but we can't do that if we don't know where he will be attending school next year. The application was submitted to the school in November 2024 after the regional office assisted us with the late submission.

WCED senior staff members let to run rogue
The one star is purely because there is no option for no stars.WCED staff(particularly the West Coast District)have decided to adopt a grandiose sense of self because they are not held accountable for their disrespect and disregard when staff are reported who abuse their “power” by resorting to threaten parents when the very staff that is supposed to set an example to learners and other teaching staff are just left to run rogue.It is no wonder that the state of education in this country is so decrepit when learners are the ones who more than often are better ambassadors than the very teachers that is supposed to set an example of respect and having the humility to admit any wrongdoing.There isn’t a word to describe WCED staff members adopting the “blue wall” in favour of giving themselves a tap on the back when they actually deserve a kick in the behind.

Extremely dissatisfied angry and appalled by Meteo east education district!!!!
I am absolutely dissatisfied and dissapoint to my core!!! I've been to Metro east education district in Kuilsrivier on Friday 6 March 2020, I needed to hand in my registration form to rewrite my matric in Nov 2020,I specifically asked thr receptionist to check if everything is filled in right and If all documents required was fine, she told me I need a proof of address, I told her it was not stated in the email I received form DBE when I enquired what was needed, she then told me, but it is pasted here on our wall!!! This upset me because how can you tell me that? I'm already here, this should have been stated on the email and registration form. I told her I'll return on monday 9 March 2020 I was there now and now she tells me, I have to make copy of my last matric results and have it certified again!! But it is certified and it was given to me like that by thr DBE I told her I specifically asked to check everything on friday, to which she only mentioned the proof of address, so now that I brought that, she tells me this new story! Wow she didn't even apologize nothing basically chucked me out and went on with her work!! Wow is this the kind of people that our government employ? I am appalled and very heartbroken! I just want to get my matric is that too much to ask for? I have driven out R300 petrol just to be turned away for the second time!

Robbed of my rights to a basic education
Due to unforeseen circumstances my son has had to relocate to live with me in Cape Town , I have followed all the requirements for a late application process according to what the department and Observatory junior school had told me but instead of assisting me the department and the school closest to me has refused to accept my son on the biases that the school is full for grade four. It has been two months and my son is still sitting at home.I feel that my son and I are being robbed off basic right as a citizen of South Africa.
