The Ministry of Education, Sports and Youth has announced the launch of a new electronic registration system for the 2025-2026 academic year, marking the first time that primary school enrolments and transfers will be conducted online.
The new digital platform will handle first-grade primary school registrations from January 7 to January 19, 2025, as part of the government’s digital transformation initiative to modernise existing procedures and enhance public services.
Parents must create a CY Login account between December 18, 2024, and January 6, 2025, before proceeding with the online registration through the eΔΕΑ portal.
Children born between September 1, 2018, and August 31, 2019, are eligible for first-grade enrolment. The ministry emphasised that all children residing in Cyprus, regardless of nationality or their parents’ legal status, have the right to enrol.
Required documentation includes proof of residence, immunisation records, and confirmation of pre-primary education attendance. Transfer requests can be submitted electronically between January 22 and 26, 2025.
No additional registration periods will be available except for students who could not register during the specified timeframe for valid reasons, the ministry said. Schools will not approve additional class sections beyond those established during January registrations.
Technical support will be available through Citizen Service Centres for CY Login-related issues, while school-specific queries can be directed to the helpline at 22558618 or the respective school.
Parents who fail to register their children during the designated period may be required to enrol them in the nearest school with available places, the ministry added.
