The Ministry of Primary and Secondary Education says that the 2023 Form One online applications for the enrolment of Form One pupils at public boarding schools will begin on Tuesday.
The Electronic Ministry Application Platform will close on November 30, with successful applicants being notified through text messages to their cellphones when the 2022 Grade Seven public examination results are released.
The results are expected before end of year.
The online application platform was established in 2017 following accusations of corruption in the enrolment of pupils.
Permanent Secretary in the Ministry of Primary and Secondary Education Tumisang Thabela said in a circular to provincial education directors and school heads that there were limited openings at boarding schools, urging parents to accept the available offers.
“The Ministry of Primary and Secondary Education will be running an electronic platform for enrolling Form One (1) boarding places for 2023,” reads the circular.
“Parents/guardians who wish to send their children to boarding schools are advised to start applying through the platform (www.emap.co.zw) with effect from November 1 up to November 30, 2022.
She said applicants are allowed to make a minimum of five active applications at any given time.
There are 24 246 available boarding places at public schools against a demand of over 367 000.
