Morocco Opens Registration For Primary School Students

Parents can now register children for first-year primary school through the Massar platform, while Egypt supports informal workers with a new grant.

The Ministry of National Education in Morocco has officially announced the opening of registration for new students entering the first year of primary school for the 2025-2026 academic year. This registration process will be facilitated through the 'Massar' platform, which allows parents to easily and quickly enroll their children in school.

Starting on April 1, 2025, and running until April 30, 2025, parents can take advantage of this opportunity to ensure their children are registered on time. The Ministry emphasizes the importance of accuracy when filling out the registration forms, as this will help streamline the acceptance process.

To guide parents through the registration, the 'Massar' platform provides clear and straightforward steps. Parents need to log into the platform using their account credentials, which include their email address, password, and the student’s national ID number. Once logged in, they can select the option for registering new students from the available electronic services.

After that, parents must choose the nearest educational institution to their residence. This is crucial for ensuring a smooth admission process. Accurate personal information must be filled out, including the full name, date of birth, and civil status details of the student. Parents are also required to specify the academic year as 2025-2026 on the electronic form.

Once all information is entered, parents must agree to the registration terms and click on the save request option to complete the registration successfully. This user-friendly process reflects the Ministry's commitment to providing a seamless and transparent registration experience for new students.

The importance of registering through the 'Massar' platform cannot be overstated. It is designed to simplify administrative procedures related to student enrollment while ensuring direct communication between parents and educational institutions. This reduces paperwork and the need for repeated visits to schools, ultimately improving the quality of educational services provided to students.

In addition to the Moroccan registration announcement, the Egyptian government is also taking significant steps to support individuals without fixed incomes through the opening of electronic registration for the irregular employment grant in 2025. This initiative is aimed at assisting those who work in the informal sector and lack stable financial resources.

The registration for this grant can be completed easily on the official website of the Ministry of Manpower. The grant targets specific groups, including seasonal workers in markets and small businesses, artisans, domestic workers, tuk-tuk and motorcycle drivers, as well as informal agricultural and fishing workers.

To qualify for the irregular employment grant, applicants must meet several criteria. They must be Egyptian nationals residing within the country and should not be employed by any government entity or private sector company. Additionally, applicants should not possess a commercial record or have a fixed source of income, and they must be between the ages of 18 and 60 years old.

Accurate data entry is essential during the registration process, as any errors or falsifications could lead to disqualification. The registration process is straightforward: applicants visit the Ministry of Manpower's website, select the option for registering irregular workers, and enter their national ID number, date of birth, and other required information.

Following this, applicants must select their current type of work and geographic location, and they are required to upload a photo of their national ID card (both sides). After reviewing all entered data, they can submit their application.

Once the registration is complete, applicants can track their application status through their personal account on the same website. This will indicate whether their application is under review or has been accepted. If accepted, a text message will be sent to inform them of the date for grant disbursement.

It is crucial for applicants to follow the official registration steps closely, avoiding any intermediaries or unauthorized offices. Ensuring timely registration will secure their right to receive the financial support they need.

Both Morocco and Egypt are making strides in enhancing their educational and social support systems through digital platforms. The 'Massar' platform in Morocco is revolutionizing the way students are registered in schools, while Egypt's irregular employment grant is providing much-needed assistance to vulnerable workers in the informal economy.

These initiatives highlight the importance of leveraging technology to improve public services and ensure that citizens receive the support they require. By simplifying registration processes and ensuring direct communication between authorities and the public, both countries are paving the way for a more efficient and responsive governance model.
