Twenty-four students from Harare Polytechnic face delayed graduation after their college made a serious mistake. The school forgot to send exam papers to the Higher Education Examination Council on time. These Survey and Geometric course students are expected to graduate this August after finishing their studies. College officials discovered the error during a board meeting when they found scripts buried under other papers. The examination council refused to accept the late submissions.

Students must rewrite their project management exam and wait another year for graduation ceremonies. Many pupils had already returned home, expecting to collect their certificates soon. Student leader Tom Kwashira demands that the college pay for travel costs and accommodation expenses. The affected learners want guarantees that they can graduate this year if they agree to retake the tests. School officials tried to negotiate with examination authorities but received no mercy.

The college's public relations officer directed questions to the examination council about this mess. Students refuse to rewrite exams without compensation for the institution's failure. Kwashira argues that pupils completed their work properly and should not suffer consequences. The mistake has created anger among families who planned graduation celebrations. College sources claim the scripts got mixed up with other student projects.
