Instructions for Using the Upgraded System
Parents will be able to request transfers for their kids across schools, claims Prof. Magoha.
By sparing parents, school leaders and principals, together with the directors of education, from having to manually apply the transfer procedure in the past, this will assure the effectiveness of the learner transfer process.
