Katoto Primary School

Katoto Primary School is a primary school in the Katoto area of Mzuzu, in Mzimba District in Malawi's Northern Region. The Malawi Electoral Commission's 2025 list of established voter registration centres for Mzuzu City Council includes "Katoto School" in the Katoto-Chibavi ward. Katoto Secondary School, a separate institution, appears in the same list as a tally centre. Primary education in Malawi runs from Standard 1 to Standard 8 and ends with the Primary School Leaving Certificate Examination (PSLCE), set by the Malawi National Examinations Board (MANEB). Tuition has been free in government primary schools since 1994. Pupils who pass the PSLCE may be selected for secondary school, which runs from Form 1 to Form 4 and ends with the Malawi School Certificate of Education (MSCE), also set by MANEB. Mzuzu is the capital of the Northern Region and Malawi's third-largest city. It grew from a tung-oil plantation scheme started by the Colonial Development Corporation in the late 1940s and is now the north's main commercial, administrative and educational centre, home to Mzuzu University and Mzuzu Central Hospital. The city lies within Mzimba District but is governed by its own city council. The school has not published a telephone number, enrolment figures or admission arrangements online, so parents are advised to ask at the school directly.
