The real-time for academic activities to begin is on November 7 and I think that is where parents and students need clarification because people are complaining that the time is very short.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cWe feel that with the introduction of the harmonised prospectus, a lot of parents would have the opportunity to prepare their children for school.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cBut the most important thing for the parents and all the prospective students to know is that if you are unable to be in school and begin your registration process, you are not losing your admission slot. There is still an opportunity for you, particularly when the academic activities are yet to start.\u201d<\/p>\n<hr\/>\n<p><em><strong>Explore the world of impactful news with CitiNewsroom on WhatsApp!<\/strong><\/em><\/p>\n<p><em><strong>Click on the link to join the Citi Newsroom channel for curated, meaningful stories tailored just for YOU: https:\/\/whatsapp.com\/channel\/0029VaCYzPRAYlUPudDDe53x<\/strong><\/em><\/p>\n<p><em><strong>No spams, just the stories that truly matter! #StayInformed #CitiNewsroom #CNRDigital<\/strong><\/em><\/p>\n<\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The Ministry of Education is calling on parents to remain calm as incoming first-year students at Senior High Schools (SHS), as well as technical and vocational institutions, prepare to start the new academic term on Thursday, October 31.
