ZIMSEC Registration Deadline For November 2026 Exams Extended To 22 May

The Minister of Primary and Secondary Education, Torerayi Moyo, has announced an extension of the ZIMSEC registration fee payment deadline from 27 March 2026 to 22 May 2026.

Speaking to lawmakers during a Question and Answer session in the National Assembly on Wednesday, 25 March, Moyo said that centres which have already collected registration fees are encouraged to proceed with depositing the funds into the relevant bank accounts. He said:

“We have received requests of that nature to the effect that parents and guardians are requesting that the deadline for the Zimbabwe school examinations for November 2026 be extended.

“After making some consultations, I am pleased to announce that the November 2026 public examinations deadline for registration will be extended from 27 March 2026 to 22 May 2026.

“We encourage that the centres that had collected registration fees should proceed and deposit the fees with the Zimbabwe school examinations banking institution so that it does not disrupt the preparations for the examinations for the November 2026 examinations.”
