CONDITIONS OF APPLICATION

CODE OF CONDUCT AND POLICIES
I agree to the terms of the St Declan’s policies, procedures and school Code of Conduct. Copies of which are available from the school office, and some are available on the D6 Connect App.
MUTUAL AGREEMENT
Enrolment at Saint Declan’s is subject to mutual agreement between the responsible person, and the Directors of Saint Declan’s. The responsible person may withdraw the student (with a notice period of 3 months, in writing), and the Directors of the school may terminate the enrolment should they deem it to be in the best interests of the school, and/or the students thereof.
RIGHT TO EDUCATION
The SA government has guaranteed every child access to education, and therefore has the responsibility of providing such education through public schools. By completing this application, the responsible person agrees that the Department of Education still bears the responsibility of providing education for the child in the event that the enrolment be terminated by either party, for any reason, and that by admitting a student, Saint Declan’s does not relieve the government of that responsibility.
FEES
This application constitutes acceptance of an offer to provide educational services to the student, in return for regular payment of school fees as set by the School. The School relies on school fees for income and reserves the right to suspend or terminate attendance if fees are in arrears. In that case, the student will have to apply at public schools as per the RIGHT TO EDUCATION policy above. Should Saint Declan’s be required to make use of legal collection services and/or appoint an Attorney on collection of arrears school fees, the parent agrees to be held liable for the costs of such collection on a scale as between Attorney and Client, including collection commission. The parent also consents to the Jurisdiction of the District Magistrates Court in the event of legal proceedings being instituted. IEB student registration fees will be billed separately to standard school fees as and when they are required by the IEB. The School offers additional discount on yearly fees paid in advance. Should a child be withdrawn from school, St Declan’s has the right to withhold fee payments made in advance as the space has been allocated for that child for that particular year and other potential candidates have not been accepted accordingly.
DEVELOPMENT FEE – R5 000
Each family is required to contribute R5 000.00 towards the development of the school. It is charged PER FAMILY, not per child, which means this fee applies to the oldest child enrolled. This once-off, non-refundable fee is used to provide the best possible facilities for your son and is payable in full prior to the date of enrolment.
RELIGIOUS AFFILIATION
Saint Declan’s is a Christian School, with Christian teachers and staff who strive to maintain a Christian environment. The school is open to non-Christian students, provided that both student and parents agree to embrace and participate in the Christian activities of the school which includes religious instructions, assembly, religious worship and PE. Your son may also not wear any religious apparel whatsoever.

FINANCIAL UNDERTAKING

ARREARS SCHOOL FEES
Should St Declan’s be required to make use of legal collection services and/or appoint an Attorney on collection of arrears school fees, I agree to be held liable for the costs of such collection on a scale as between Attorney and Client, including collection of commission. I also consent to the Jurisdiction of the District Magistrates Court in the event of legal proceedings being instituted.
