Let the school know you're thinking of applying — they can share their prerequisites and help you through the process.
It's best to ask — circumstances can change at any time.
1. Get Information Pack. Visit Pestalozzi Education Centre or fill in the online contact form to receive a complete presentation about the school and its curriculum. The pack covers the programmes offered, including the Zambia National Curriculum (ECZ), Cambridge IGCSE, and the International Baccalaureate Diploma Programme, and explains how they fit with the school's approach. This information helps families understand what Pestalozzi Education Centre offers and how it supports student development. 2. Pay Registration Fee. The enrollment process requires payment of K500 per student for scheduling an admission test. Additionally, K1500 per student is due as an enrollment fee, K3000 per family as a development levy, and K2500 per student as a refundable security deposit. These payments cover testing, enrollment, development activities, and the security deposit. 3. Submit Required Documents. The required documents include the learner's birth certificate or passport with a study permit, the learner's ID photos, most recent school reports (last two years), and a transfer letter or school fee clearance certificate from the current school. These documents verify identity and academic history and support the application. 4. Write an Entry Assessment. Assessments are carried out for students applying to any grade to evaluate suitability and identify strengths and weaknesses. For students in examination years (Grade 7 and Grade 9), a cut-off point was set in 2020 at 740 and 400 respectively; students who score higher than these cut-offs on national exams are exempt from the admission test and receive direct admission. Students who do not reach the cut-offs will write an admission test. 5. Receive Communication From The School. Communications are sent via email, WhatsApp, social media platforms, the school website, SMS, and phone calls.
The Enko Scholarship programme is available to support talented students who do not have the financial means to afford standard fees. Applicants for scholarships may be assessed on their academic potential during admissions. The policy notes that the Enko Scholarship programme is part of Enko Education standards and practices and is designed to improve access to Pestalozzi Education Centre and other Enko schools. Scholarships are school-based and not intended for higher education progression.
