Education in Zimbabwe is improving day by day

Zimbabwe's educational system continues to be an intriguing one. Students start their elementary education in the first grade at age six. “Students take a demanding exam at the conclusion of their seventh year of schooling that assesses their aptitude for understanding English, mathematics, an indigenous language, and a combination of social and natural sciences,” says Jozef Behr a primary school teacher. They then enroll in secondary school, where they study subjects like English, history, math, science, and a vocational field.

Being a teacher in a school Jozef Behr knows the worth of quality education. That's why he always encourages his students to have the choice to continue their education at one of seven different universities across the country after completing their secondary education. One such university is the University of Zimbabwe, the top university in the country and one that was founded in 1955. The institution, which is situated in the city of Harare, has been awarding associate, bachelor, master, and doctoral degrees ever since it was founded. Another is the 2002-founded Women's University in Africa, which aims to eliminate gender inequality and promote equal education across the whole country.

Jozef Clifford Behr says, “Education in Zimbabwe is improving day by day”. Zimbabwe has the highest percentage of literacy on the African continent, at 91 percent, as a direct result of education reform. More women than males have formal educations in much of the country. Currently, a primary school may be found in every community around the country. The government currently brags that the completion rate for primary schools increased from 89.2 percent to 90.2 percent in 2013, indicating that the country was progressing in terms of education. 

As Zimbabwe is a landlocked nation with a surface size of 150,871 square miles, has made significant improvements to its educational system over the past few decades. After the nation declared its independence, resources greatly improved, schools were enlarged, and a sizable number of teachers were trained. Although there is a sizable achievement discrepancy between urban and rural schools, the 13 million people who live in Zimbabwe have unquestionably profited from education.

National Coat of Arms of Zimbabwe

 A national coat of arms, often known as a state emblem, is the state's most visible symbol. Consider how the Coat of Arms is endorsed on all of the significant events in your life: birth, marriage, death, and school certificates, as well as your passport. It's on one of the sides of your tiniest coin. Seeing a plaque of it on the embassy when out of the nation signifies a home away from home. The coat of arms is also a key component of the Great Seal, which is historically regarded as the state's highest insignia. The President of Zimbabwe, by Statutory Instrument no.636 of September 1981, Armorial Bearings of Zimbabwe, formally accepted the Coat of Arms of Zimbabwe on September 12, 1981.   On the left and right, two kudus are depicted, each standing on top of an earthly mound made up of wheat stalks, a pile of cotton, and a head of maize.

According to Mr. Behr, “Communities in Zimbabwe were already suffering to feed their family due to Covid-19, but in recent times, the situation has become extensively worse as climate change has hindered their efforts to cultivate crops”.
