What kind of school is Krugersdorp High School?
Krugersdorp High School is a public secondary school in Krugersdorp, within the Gauteng West education district of Gauteng. EMIS records it as a very large school with 1,754 enrolled learners and 95 educators, giving a learner-to-educator ratio of 19:1.
It is classified as Quintile 5 — a government classification based on the surrounding community's socioeconomic profile, not a measure of school quality. Fees are set by the School Governing Body, and families who cannot afford fees may apply for exemption. Matric candidates write the National Senior Certificate (NSC) administered by the Department of Basic Education.
The school falls within the Mogale City local municipality. Among 223 Q5 Secondary schools in Gauteng, it has fewer learners per educator than 83% of similar schools. EMIS classifies the location as urban.
The school is at 1 Cornelius Moll Street, Monument Ext, Krugersdorp, Mogale City, and can be reached on 011 954 1009.
Note: The Urban/Rural classification is sourced directly from EMIS and may reflect historical registration data. See Data Limitations.
School fees at Krugersdorp High School
Krugersdorp High School is recorded as a fee-charging school. The school governing body proposes the amount and a majority of parents at the yearly budget meeting must approve it.
We do not have the amount. The principal must tell parents the yearly fee when a child is admitted, so ask the school office.
Fee status as recorded by the Department of Basic Education.
If you cannot afford the fees
At a public school that charges fees, parents can apply to pay less or nothing. This is called an exemption. A public school may not refuse to admit a child because the parent cannot pay the fees or has not paid them.
- You pay nothing if one child's yearly fees, plus any other money the school asks you to pay for that child, are 10% (one tenth) or more of the parents' combined yearly income before tax.
- You pay less if the fees and other payments are between 3.5% and 10% of that income. Below 3.5%, you pay less only if you have several children at public schools that charge fees: at least 2 children at 3%, 4 at 2.5%, or 6 at 2%. The regulations' table goes up in half percents and does not settle the figures between its rows, so the calculator below shows both rows.
- Below 2% the formula gives no exemption. If you still cannot pay because of something outside your control, tell the governing body. It may agree to an exemption with conditions.
- You pay nothing, no matter how much you earn, if you receive a social grant for the child, if the child is placed in a foster home, a youth care centre, a place of safety or an orphanage, if you are a relative caring for an orphan, or for a child whose parents have abandoned them and who has no means of support, or if the child heads the household. You must give the governing body proof: an affidavit, a letter from a social worker, or a court order.
Work out what the formula gives you
Use amounts for a whole year. If you pay monthly, multiply by the number of months the school charges. Nothing you type leaves your device.
How to apply: ask the principal for the exemption form and give it to the chairperson of the school governing body. You apply every year. If the other parent cannot be found or will not give their income, you can say so in an affidavit and apply on your own. The governing body must decide within 30 days and tell you in writing. If you are not satisfied, you can appeal in writing to the head of the provincial education department, within 30 days of getting the decision.

After matric: applying and paying for study
Some universities charge nothing to apply, and some waive the fee. These are their own rules, checked on 7 November 2026. Most applications for 2027 closed in September and October 2026. Rules and dates change every year, so confirm on the university's website before you apply.
- University of the Free State: No application fee (2027 applications).
- University of Johannesburg: No application fee for online applications.
- University of Mpumalanga: No application fee from the 2027 academic year.
- University of Venda: No application fee.
- Central University of Technology: No application fee.
- Nelson Mandela University: No application fee for South African citizens.
- University of the Western Cape: No application fee (2027 application guide).
- University of Pretoria: R300 to apply for 2027, waived if your household income is R150 000 a year or less. You upload proof of income with the application.
- Stellenbosch University: R100 for South African citizens and permanent residents to apply for 2027. The online system asks for R400: pay only R100 by EFT, or pay R400 online and get R300 back. Depending on the quintile of your school, undergraduate applicants may pay nothing: the application then shows the fee as R0.00. South Africans applying to the Stellenbosch or Tygerberg campus who cannot pay can send the university a motivation: the fee guide linked here gives the address. The EMIS record lists Krugersdorp High School as Quintile 5; confirm with the university.
- NSFAS: The government's student funding scheme for study at public universities and TVET colleges. Applications for 2027 funding closed on 31 October 2026; the website has the rules and lets you track an application.
- Career advice (Khetha): The Department of Higher Education and Training's career advice service: call 086 999 0123 or SMS 072 204 5056.
This list may be incomplete: other universities may also be free to apply, and some charge a fee. It is not a recommendation of any university.
