What process should I follow to enroll my child?

Learners are referred to Merryvale school by the Department of Education (Specialised Education: Eastern Cape), situated at 46 Park Drive, Port Elizabeth, contact number, (041) 508 8300. Placing is done in conjunction with the principal.

  • Primarily, learners must benefit maximally from our educational programme.
  • Learners should already be 5 years of age when admitted and they leave school at the end of the year in which they turn 18.
  • Parents will then be officially notified by the Department of Education and Merryvale administration will follow up with additional enrolment information.
  • Please note: There is no set timeframe for admission decisions, as placement depends on space availability at the school.
