Namatapa Full Primary School

Namatapa Full Primary School is a primary school in the Bangwe-Mtopwa ward of Blantyre City, in southern Malawi. The Malawi Electoral Commission's 2025 register of established voter registration centres lists "Namatapa F.P. School" as a centre in the Bangwe-Mtopwa ward of the BT City Mapanga-Mpingwe-Mzedi constituency, in its Blantyre City Council section. "F.P." stands for full primary, meaning the school teaches the whole primary course. The two other centres in the ward are Bangwe Catholic F.P. School and Bangwe Clinic Ground. 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); the results determine selection to secondary school. Tuition has been free in government primary schools since 1994. Blantyre is Malawi's second-largest city and its centre of finance and commerce, with 800,264 residents at the 2018 census. It grew from a Church of Scotland mission founded in 1876 and is named after Blantyre in Scotland, the birthplace of the explorer David Livingstone. The city merged with its eastern neighbour, Limbe, in 1956, and Bangwe lies on its eastern side. Fees, term dates, enrolment arrangements and a contact number for the school have not been published online.
