For secondary schools & sixth forms

Multi-stage admissions without the spreadsheet sprawl

Configure your review workflow, gate progression on scores, respect branch capacity and keep a clean audit trail — across every campus and every year group.

What multi-stage admissions usually look like

The pain we hear from registrars running review-heavy intake at scale.

Workflow handoffs by email

Applications reviewed by admissions, then head, then bursar — each handoff a fresh email thread with no shared status.

Decisions assembled from memory

Scores, comments and approvals scattered across spreadsheets, with no traceable rubric and no audit log.

Branch capacity guessed

Multi-campus schools juggle capacity manually — often offering more places than they can honour.

Audit trail reconstructed after the fact

Governors, inspectors or appeals panels ask who approved what — answered by trawling through email.

How Admissions Africa works for secondary schools

Multi-stage review with the operational detail your registrar actually needs.

  1. Application captured per campus and year

    A structured form per campus or year of entry, with the fields you actually use for review.

  2. Multi-stage review with score-based gates

    A configurable workflow with conditional progression — applicants only advance when they meet a score threshold or a manual approval lands.

  3. Capacity-aware offers

    Offers respect live capacity per campus and year, so you never offer a place that doesn’t exist.

  4. Decisions logged with full audit trail

    Every step, score and approval is logged for governors, moderators and external reviewers — no more reconstruction after the fact.
