NEMIS is the Ministry of Education’s National Education Management Information System. Schools and learners are registered so that placement, capitation and transfers can be tracked.
Learner details usually required
- Full name as on the birth certificate
- Date of birth, gender, nationality
- Home county and sub-county
- Parent or guardian ID and contacts
- Special needs information if any
School registration (admin)
- Use the official NEMIS portal (nemis.education.go.ke).
- Register the institution with legal documents, contacts and staff lists as prompted.
- Add learners with birth certificate details.
- Review and submit for validation.
Parents who only need a learner captured should work through the school’s NEMIS champion rather than creating parallel records.
