Bulawayo leads Zimbabwe with the best education rates. A major health survey from 2023 to 2024 shows almost everyone there can read and write. The city has 99 percent literacy for women and men. Rural areas lag behind cities across the country. Only 68 percent of rural women and 70 percent of rural men finished high school.
The Zimbabwe National Statistics Agency talked to nearly 14,000 people for this study. They visited homes from December through May to gather facts. Urban residents do much better than rural folks at school. About 91 percent of city women and 92 percent of city men went to high school or college.
Radio and TV reach many people but not everyone listens or watches regularly. About half of all women never use any media at all. Rich people watch TV much more than poor families. The internet grows popular but many still cannot access it daily.
