Grade 1 criteria for placement is as follows: Select the following options online when making the application for your new Grade 1 learner in line with the PLACEMENT CRITERIA listed below: (Criteria for placement is applied across the Grades for all new learners who apply at Glenanda Primary School).
Please Remember:
Glenanda is a high-pressure school for applications. Learners who are in the current Grade are accepted to the next year via a re-registration process that takes place during the current year. Learners who are retained in the Grade are then accommodated and then only does the waiting list for all grade get consulted according to the Criteria for Placement.
HOME ADDRESS closest to the school is the first option.
SIBLING - This is the second option and second placement criteria for applicants. (If you have a Sibling AND live in the school feeder area, you MUST select HOME ADDRESS as your first option of placement. If you do not live in the school feeder area, but have a sibling at the school, you must select SIBLING OPTION as your first option for placement.)
WORK IN THE FEEDER AREA: Refers to applicant parents who are OFFICE BASED in the school feeder area and can provide original support from the employer to the school. This is the third placement criteria IF SPACE IS STILL AVAIALABLE after option 1 & 2 are exhausted.
SCHOOL WITHIN A 30km RADIUS: Refers to a school that is not near your home or work address, but is still a parent applicant choice of school. This is the last option IF SPACE IS AVAILABLE and criteria 1-3 have been observed.
