Kamuzu LEA Primary School

Kamuzu LEA Primary School is a government primary school in Mchinji Boma, the administrative centre of Mchinji District in Malawi's Central Region. "LEA" stands for Local Education Authority, the designation used for primary schools run by government rather than by a church or a private proprietor.

School as a centre in Boma ward, in the Mchinji West constituency. It is the only school of the Kamuzu name in the district's list. "F.P." stands for full primary, a school that teaches all eight standards. Primary education in Malawi runs from Standard 1 to Standard 8 and ends with the Primary School Leaving Certificate of Education (PSLCE), set by the Malawi National Examinations Board (MANEB). Tuition in government primary schools has been free since 1994. Mchinji Boma, formerly known as Fort Manning after the governor William Manning, had 28,011 residents at the 2018 census.
