We are looking for pioneers who want to lead the way to a prosperous Zambia.

Selection Criteria

For an application to be successful, the applicant must be:

  • Aged 15 to 18

  • A Zambian citizen

  • Have demonstrable excellence in Science, Technology, Engineering and Mathematics (STEM) subjects. Distinction first-class in Mathematics, Additional Mathematics, Biology, Chemistry, and Physics.

  • Holders of school leadership positions such as; school headboy/girl, prefects/counsellors, sports/team captain.

Whilst applicants must meet the minimum requirements for entry, Crucible Lusaka recognizes that talent, potential and leadership may not always be reflected in traditional Zambia General Certificate of Education qualifications, or equivalent. That is why at Crucible Lusaka, internal assessments are conducted in order to complement the secondary school level examinations.
