School Background
The school was established on 02-02-78
under a Mukute Tree with an enrolment of 355 pupils and 8 teachers. It was
established to facilitate educational needs of the children in the surrounding
villages and Tangwena Rusape evicts who had been resettled in Tsanzaguru. Some
of these children were walking a total distance of 28 km per day in order to
attend school at Vengere Primary and St Joseph’s Primary while others had
dropped out of school. The suburb was constructed for government workers who
were no longer welcome in their rural areas during the liberation war. The
founding head master was Mr Mukosora. It opened doors for its first constructed
blocks in 1978. Due to an increase in the enrolment the hot sitting started
then in 1979 through to independence.
It is a peri urban school which has
seen an increase in enrolment due to newly constructed residential houses. We
have an enrolment currently standing at 1600 students. In 2019, pass rate was
95.71% and in 2020 dropped to 81.92% due to COVID 19 induced lock down.
An increase in enrolment has caused
a huge shortages of classroom, ablution facilities and furniture. We have on
plan to complete the 2 classroom block and construct a toilet flash system to
help improve the wellbeing of our learners. The following are some of the
projects we need assistance with.
