The school functions primarily to meet the educational needs of the children of missionaries and commended workers (provided their mission is recognized by the school). Staff and facilities permitting, others who meet the language and behavioral requirements may be admitted at the discretion of the board of governors, and/or the Principal.
A child is eligible for grade one at Sakeji only if his or her sixth birthday falls before 30 April in the year of entry. Non-missionary applicants are not normally offered places after their tenth birthday. Because there is no satisfactory reliable public transport, and because the main road north of Mwinilunga is not sealed, parents applying to enrol their children should have access to a sturdy and dependable vehicle. Four wheel drive is highly recommended in the rainy season.
All parents who wish to enrol their children are requested to write to the Headmaster either with an E-mail or through the post. See the tab above Contacting Sakeji for details.
