Public School Registration Dates Released
The Department of Education announced the Bermuda Public School registration dates for preschools and senior schools.
A Government spokesperson said, “The Department of Education is pleased to announce the following registration dates:
“Parents of students currently enrolled will receive pre-printed registration forms that will be provided to parents prior to the registration periods for preschool and senior school.
“Parents of students registering into the system will be required to submit a copy of a birth certificate and verification of address, along with the completed application form, which will be available on the Department of Education’s website or at the Department of Education at 44 West Church Street, Hamilton.
“Applications received after the November 14th, 2019 deadline for senior school and November 28th, 2019 deadline for preschool will be considered late.
“Late applications may affect a child’s enrolment into parents’ school of choice, as late applications are not considered until after all on-time applications have been processed.
“Preschool and primary school parents who wish to learn more about the registration process may attend a parent information night which will be held November 7th, 2019 at CedarBridge Academy in the Kalmar Richards Conference Room from 6:00 p.m. – 7:30 p.m.
“Primary school registration will take place from January 28th to 30th, 2020.
“Middle school registration will be scheduled for February 2020.
“For more information regarding school registration, parents can contact the relevant school or the Department of Education at registration@moed.bm or 278-3307.”
As a parent of a child entering preschool my main concern with the new early registration is OPEN HOUSE. Will preschools have them in the coming weeks or will they still be in the new year when it no longer matters because registration is over?
