As @Artuz we are pushing for learning opportunities for all pupils in the country even in the regions where we are seeing low grades in a bid to get better quality education

Privatization of Education has grown as private players have joined the space to provide basic education affordably aways from expensive private schools. @RKumirai #ruhusiwadialogue

Privatization in my case is where government has left its role as a provider and taken the role of a regulator of education service @OMasaraure #RuhusiwaDialogues

We have over 7 000 schools in Zimbabwe and over a 1 000 of them have been built in the last 4years.

@RKumirai #RuhusiwaDialogues

The entrance of private school has increased the access for girls to access education...

There are so many barriers of entry to register a private school in Zimbabwe & get a license but regulation after you start operation its almost non existent #RuhusiwaDialogues @RKumirai

There are limited resources that a lot of private schools needed but are readily available in some public and Group A schools.
#RuhusiwaDialogues

@ano87mari there is a lot of challenges that parents are highlighting from lack of quality teachers on some private school, sport etc #RuhusiwaDialogues

Education isn’t a commodity but a basic right and need

We have a shortage of 4000 schools in Zimbabwe based on Population growth so we are already
