education nightmare

<p> </p> <p>my brother,niece and my child were living in mpumalanga with my mother and my mother has been diagnosed with a chronic disease that will make her not able to take care of the kids anymore and we wanted them to come and go to school in cape town as we dont have close relatives that can take care of them in mpumalanga and the situation has happened suddenly,I went from school to school to the nearby schools primary and high school with no luck and was told that the registrations closed on the 31 of march 2016 in all the schools for 2017 and i called department of education and explained my situation and they refered me to the department of education that is based in koerberg and i filled forms on the 18th of november and was told to wait for the call,Now they called and they can only find a high school and not primary as the schools are all full and the school is in heighdeveld for a high school and the children in area that went to school in the area died because of the gangsterism on the way to school and that has been a situation that we live in .Now i lost hope,I will have to register them early in 2018 for 2019 next year they will sit at home,as painful as it is there is also nothing i can do because my only hope was the department of education ,and having to explain to them that they will not go to school next year will also be a hard part because i tried looking for a school and the department of education could not help me and when i call to explain the situation it hurts being told that all the other parents have the same story and problems are not created by people because i also never knew that i would be in this situation but all in all i lost hope</p>
