Mangwara Primary School, Zimbabwe

Mangwara Primary School supports an average of 300 learners from ECD to grade 7. We have made significant infrastructure investments in the school to ensure that learners have adequate learning facilities and resources. We built an additional classroom block, installed solar and a borehole for the school, and purchased desks, chairs, and textbooks to aid in the academic development of learners and to improve the school pass rate.

Our Impact

The launch of the nutrition program at the school has positively contributed to an increase in the school attendance and pass rate in 2023.

Our next focus is to build additional classroom blocks, renovate the teacher’s accommodation, install solar power, and purchase additional desks, chairs, textbooks, bookshelves, a printer, and stationery. We will continue with the nutrition program and install wi-fi at the school.
