The school was a large Quintile 4 school with a learner enrolment of 1 646 and a post provisioning norm of 50 educators, including a principal, two deputy principals and four HODs. It also had three Early Childhood Development (ECD) practitioners and eight non-teaching staff (four state paid and four SGB paid). The teacher-learner ratio stood at 1:35. Learner enrolment had declined from 1 803 in 2012. The Committee was told that the school was trying to reduce learner intake due to the lack of classroom space at the school. The school had arranged with neighbouring schools to take learners not accepted at the school. The Committee advised the district to monitor the process to ensure that no learner was left without a school.
