Schools targeted for privatisation include St David’s Bonda High School, St Anne’s Goto, St Augustine and St Faith, among other high schools. ---------- Latest itel S24 available on Pindula: 128GB storage, 4GB RAM $119 USD WhatsApp: +263715068543 Calls: 0772464000 Buy Online: https://www.pindula.co.zw/market/itel-s24-128gb-22-20240426142756795795/?s=wanews ---------- A senior church member, Simon Sachitwe, told NewsDay on Thursday that the church will guarantee places for local schoolchildren. He said: > The church leadership led by Bishop Eric Ruwona is determined to privatise its mission schools. > We are doing it so that we can empower our local children by giving them scholarships, among other benefits. > … If you look at St Augustine’s in Penhalonga, most of the children are from outside Mutare and locals are no longer benefiting. > We want to give local schoolchildren a quota of available places. If we privatise, we can attract some of the best teachers in the country because we will pay them handsomely. Sachitwe revealed that the church had already done all the necessary applications to privatise the schools. In September this year, the ruling ZANU PF party warned the Anglican Diocese of Manicaland against its plans to privatise its best performing mission schools in the province.
