Women make up 75 percent of the staff at Zimbabwe National Army Schools, pushing gender equality forward across the military education system. The Zimbabwe National Army Schools and Welfare Trust puts women in charge at most locations. Many female leaders head prestigious army schools throughout the country, creating balance within military educational settings nationwide.
Colonel Abnel Makaripe shared these facts after giving away a new classroom block at Imbizo Garrison Primary School in Bulawayo. He pointed to both Imbizo and nearby Indlovu Iyanyathela Primary School as examples of successful female leadership. The Army Education Corps focuses hard on equal gender representation. They place women deliberately into key positions across their educational network.
Army schools have earned fame for great academic results during recent years. Students achieve 98 percent pass rates at grade seven and Advanced levels, and ordinary level scores stay above 50 percent consistently. Parents rush to enroll their children because these impressive numbers keep climbing.
The trust builds more classrooms everywhere to meet growing demand from families. They want everyone from surrounding communities to benefit from military-run education. No child should miss the chance to attend these high-performing schools. Colonel Makaripe said they must expand quickly to serve all interested students.
According to officials, drug problems stay away from army school grounds completely. Several military departments team up to teach students about substance dangers. The health services, social services, and military police visit regularly to educate children. These partnerships keep drugs out of army schools through constant awareness programs.
