Student Application Form

Chengelo requires your child to complete an online Cognitive Ability Test.

The Admissions Department will contact you to arrange for this assessment to be done in your area.
** Please note that the cost of the assessment is K500 to the school and K500 to the supervisor.

You will receive a report on your child’s results. If your child was successful, your application will move to the next step.

At this stage, you will be invited to a attend a phone interview with the Head of School.

This should only take 30 minutes and gives us the opportunity to get to you and your your child and for you to ask any questions you might have about the school.

If the interview went well and there is space in the year group you are interested in, then you will receive an email offering your child a provisional place at Chengelo School.

To confirm the provisional place, you will need to pay a one-off Enrolement Fee. You will be sent an invoice for this via email.

For details on payment amounts and how to make a payment, please click the button below. Thank you for your patience through this process and we look forward to welcoming you to Chengelo School!

what parents are saying

The time that our son spent at Chengelo Primary was a high point in his school career. The teachers showed an amazing ability to care for his emotional well-being as well as his academic progress.

MRS. SYMONS, Primary Daily Parent

Chengelo has also helped my son develop a deeper love for God and a strong sense of moral grounding. The school’s focus on character development and spiritual growth has played a key role in shaping his values.
