The Government of Zimbabwe plans to establish information technology servers in rural schools to address the shortage of reading material, which is contributing to a low pass rate. The Zimbabwe School Examinations Council recently reported that a very low percent of students passed their Ordinary Level exams. These textbook servers to be implemented in rural schools will provide students with an endless resource of information and in turn increase the quality of results.

Primary and Secondary Education Minister Torerai Moyo expressed concern about the low pass rate, particularly in rural schools where learners struggle to access reading materials due to limited internet connectivity. As a solution, the government is partnering with development partners to provide online learning resources through servers.

The servers will allow students within a 200-meter radius to access digital textbooks and submit assignments. Minister Moyo also highlighted the shortage of teachers in rural areas as a factor contributing to low pass rates. To address this, the government plans to invest US$1.2 million to support the completion and registration of 250 schools.

Minister Moyo encouraged individuals and organizations to invest in building schools, as there is a deficit of 2,800 learning institutions in the country. The minister also warned teachers against offering extra lessons for a fee, as it may result in disciplinary action.
