The Lüderitz Blue School is registered with the Ministry of Education, Arts and Culture of the Republic of Namibia, registered 7720. Admission is open to all learners, irrespective of race, colour, ethnic origin or creed. We take safeguarding very seriously and all staff will be subject to vigourous checks.
Our Admissions
Admissions are open for learners from Grades 0 to 9. We accept admissions all year long and learners can join the Blue School at any time.
Our registration with the Ministry of Education allows us to expand our school up to Grade 12. We will be offering Cambridge International IGCSEs in Grade 10/11 and A-Levels in Grade 12/13. As these are two year courses of study, we will not take new pupils into an exam year unless they have already completed one year of study in the equivalent system. For more information please see the Admissions Policy or get in touch at info@luderitzblueschool.com
01.
As a first step, parents/guardians should complete an Application Form Forms can be collected from the school office or downloaded from the website and returned via email or hand delivery. Please note: certified copies of the child’s birth certificate, as well as their most recent report card must be attached. There is also an Application Fee of N$330 to be paid via bank transfer to the school.

Selected children will then be invited into school for a Trial Day(s). During the Trial Day(s), children will have a school tour and participate in the regular timetabled lessons and playtimes. They will also be required to complete an independent online aptitude test. This is not a test of what the child knows so much as an assessment of how they learn.
03.
Following the Trial Day, a member of the school management will contact parents to inform them whether the child has been successful. If a place is to be offered to the child, the parents will be invited in for a meeting with a member with School Management to discuss the next steps and receive all necessary paperwork. We will endeavour to inform parents whether their child has been successful or not within 7 days following the Trial Day.
Scholarship Places
The Lüderitz Blue School would like to make a top-class education available to as many children in Lüderitz as possible. We therefore offer a number of fully-funded scholarship places. The scholarship places available will increase in proportion to the number of enrolled learners at the school.
Priority is given to younger learners and our preferred age for scholarship applications is Grade 2 or 3. The application process is the same as above but parents should enclose a 'motivation letter' that sets out why they are applying for a scholarship place and why they think their child would benefit from it. Please see the scholarship policy for more details.
