The feeder zone policy in Gauteng aims to streamline the admission process for public schools, ensuring that learners living close to schools are given priority during the application process. Introduced as part of the Gauteng Schools Education Act, this policy ensures fairness, reduces travel distances for students, and fosters community integration within schools.
The policy prioritizes applications from learners residing within defined feeder zones. Applications from learners outside these zones are considered only after processing those from within the zones. Parents outside the feeder zones may still apply, but should anticipate that spaces may be limited.
