Published January 5, 2026, 08:27

The enrollment process for public primary schools has begun with the widespread implementation of electronic registration. The General Inspector of Primary Education, Dr. Sofia Ioannou Georgiou, provided information on the schedules and steps parents need to follow. Enrollment for primary schools lasts until January 19th, while for kindergartens it will take place from January 12th to 16th. This year, electronic registration applies to all grades of primary school, while kindergartens retain the traditional system with paper forms. Creating the student's electronic 'ID' through the eΔΕΑ platform will simplify future transactions with the education system.
