In this policy, unless context indicates otherwise, "the School" means Pinelands High School.

Based inter alia on the number of Educators, the School's facililties and the choice of subjects offered at the school, the School shall admit no more than 960 learners at any time.

The language of instruction at the School shall be English. It is in the best interests of learners that they are able to cope in an English medium environment.

Preference will be given to learners who:

  • Comply in full with the Admissions Procedure
  • Permanently reside in the area for which Pinelands High School is the nearest school
  • Have specialised skills, talents or needs which the School has the potential to develop
  • Show the highest academic potential
  • Have a good disciplinary record

If the applicant has siblings at the School, has direct family members as Alumni or has attended one of the three State primary schools in Pinelands, these factors will be taken into consideration during the admissions process, but DO NOT form part of the core criteria for admission.

PLEASE READ OUR ADMISSIONS POLICY AND PROCEDURE VERY CAREFULLY.

INCOMPLETE APPLICATION FORMS WILL NOT BE PROCESSED.
