Lupane State University (LSU) has refused to reduce recently increased fees during a meeting with the Student Executive Council (SEC) held in Bulawayo on 01 September 2023.
<a href="https://www.chronicle.co.zw/lsu-refuses-to-review-hiked-fees/">In a statement</a>, Donald Ndlovu, a spokesperson for the students, said the LSU administration declined the request to reconsider the tuition fees and levies. He said:
<blockquote>
Revolutionary greeting to the students, it is with heavy heart to inform you of the burning issue raised by students concerning high tuition fees as the administration turned down the application to review tuition fee and levies.
Based on the updated LSU fees structure, students are now required to pay a total of US$401, which includes accommodation, as well as up to ZWL$ 2 million.
This is in contrast to the previous semester’s fees, which averaged ZWL$ 427,800, including accommodation.
</blockquote>
Ndlovu said the LSU administration has not backed down on the current hiked fees but will allow students to pay fees in installments. He said:
<blockquote>
No adjustments were made to the total fees however SEC has managed to convince the administration that students will pay 40% of the fees to attend lectures and then pay 20% to be allowed in the examination room.
Then the last 40% is to be paid on the last section of modularisation.
This was not a fee revision meeting but a consultation meeting.
All students are advised to keep on united as we find a solution for a way forward.
</blockquote>
Students from other State universities such as the Zimbabwe Open University (ZOU) and the University of Zimbabwe (UZ) have also expressed dismay over a spate of tuition and accommodation fee hikes.

Lupane State University Refuses To Reverse Fees Hike

The Government has engaged Lupane State University (LSU) to conduct research that will establish why some schools record zero percent pass rates.
Over the years, a number of schools across the country have been recording zero percent pass rates in public examinations.
Responding to questions in the Senate Question and Answer session last Thursday, Primary and Secondary Education Deputy Minister Edgar Moyo said:
<blockquote>
The issue of zero percent pass rates in our schools is very much concerning. There are a number of variables.
We have carried out some research and investigations as to why there is that prevalence. The question really says, what are we doing about it?
We are currently in partnership with LSU, with their Department of Education.
They have conducted research on the possible reasons and solutions to address that problem.
Some of the problems are beyond the capacity of schools to address and require a national effort especially when we look at the issue of infrastructure, resources at their disposal, and human resources, teachers for example.
Some of the schools have as few as three to four teachers running nine classes from Early Childhood Development (ECD) to Grade Seven. Then you have composite classes to that situation.
Honestly, the quality of education in that environment is seriously compromised. So, we need to have viable schools.
What do we mean by viable schools? We need schools with sufficient enrolments so as to attract a good number of teachers to teach each class of their own, but that is not happening because some schools have such low enrolments as 30 to 35 and so forth, particularly in the resettlement areas.
</blockquote>
Moyo said the Government was working with development partners to ensure that schools have the resources. He said:
<blockquote>
The schools are also receiving grants from our partners which we call School Improvement Grants (SIG) so that resources like books and other requisite equipment are procured for the benefit of those children.
Now, if a school is not viable as already illustrated, it means that the school is not registered and it cannot have a substantive head and we have a teacher-in-charge of that particular school.
The quality of education there becomes a problem.
We are trying to build infrastructure, register those schools, and attract sufficient teachers and students so that we can address the issue of zero percent pass rate.
</blockquote>
Here are several things that parents and guardians can do to help ensure their child’s success in school:
<ul>
<li>Help your child develop an interest and curiosity in the subjects they are studying by exposing them to different books, educational games, and field trips.</li>
<li>Set aside time for homework, studying, and other extracurricular activities.</li>
<li>Communicate regularly with your child’s teachers so that you stay informed about their progress and any areas where they may be struggling.</li>
<li>Create a quiet, distraction-free environment where your child can concentrate on their studies.</li>
<li>Keep track of your child’s grades and assignments to make sure they are staying on track.</li>
</ul>

Lupane State University Probes 0% Pass Rates In Schools

The Zimbabwe Gender Commission (ZGC) has commenced investigations in a case where the Lupane State University (LSU) vice-chancellor (VC) Pardon Kuipa is being accused of sexually abusing female members of staff.
One of the alleged victims yesterday told Southern Eye that she met ZGC officials together with her lawyers.
Matabeleland North Regional Coordinator of the ZGC, Dalubuhle Sibanda confirmed that the commission had done preliminary investigations. Sibanda said:
<blockquote>
We had a report of an LSU sexual harassment case from one of the staff members, and so we did preliminary investigations to get the details of the matter.
We wrote to the registrar asking about the issue, and he confirmed that there was such a complaint.
Now the procedure is that we need to go to the institution and do follow-ups on the high-profile case.
Our (ZGC) chief executive officer Virginia Muwanigwa is in a better position to shed light on the issue.
</blockquote>
Muwanigwa referred Southern Eye to ZGC’s legal and investigations manager Tinashe Mazani.
Southern Eye reported that by the time of going to print last night, Mazani had not responded to questions sent to him.
Last week, some women stormed the university campus in protest over alleged abuses by Kuipa.

Gender Commission Probes Lupane State University Harassment Scandal

A group of women staged a protest march on Tuesday against Lupane State University (LSU) vice-chancellor (VC) Pardon Kuipa who has been accused of sexually abusing female employees at the institution.
The protesting women under the banner, Umama Wesizwe sikaMthwakazi, petitioned the LSU registrar to investigate reports of sexual abuse and harassment of women by Kuipa, who was appointed LSU VC in 2015.
LSU registrar Jairos Makunde declined to comment and referred Southern Eye to the university spokesperson Zwelithini Dlamini who confirmed the charges against Kuipa. Said Dlamini:
<blockquote>
From the brief that l just received, l confirm that a group of women visited the registrar and presented a petition to him.
The position of the university is that intensive sensitisation of both staff and students should be carried out so that people are adequately informed about sexual harassment issues.
Management has, therefore, engaged the Gender Commission to conduct workshops.
</blockquote>
According to the petition, Kuipa allegedly sexually harassed and victimised a female staff member for turning down his advances but no action was taken against him. It read in part:
<blockquote>
We have concerns about the alleged sexual harassment of women at LSU by the VC. We, therefore, demand that in the interest of justice and the fulfilment of the right to administrative justice espoused in section 68 of the Constitution, the case be investigated and the accused charged accordingly.
Our concern is that according to news on June 22, 2021, it was reported that a sexual harassment scandal has rocked LSU where a female staff member accused the VC of sexually harassing and victimising her for turning down his advances.
No action has been taken against the perpetrator.

LSU Vice-chancellor In Sexual Harassment Storm

Some State Universities have reopened for face-to-face lectures and orientation for first-year students who will be on campus for a few weeks before they start virtual learning.
MSU director of information and public relations, Mirirai Mawere told The Herald that the university has put in place measures under WHO and Ministry of Health recommendations to prevent the spread of the novel coronavirus. She said:
<blockquote>I can confirm that we have opened the university starting with First Year, Level 1.1, who are going to be on our campuses for orientation and face-to-face lectures from September 7 up to September 19, 2020.</blockquote>
Lupane State University (LSU) will likewise allow first-year students to come to the campus for orientation for about three to four weeks before going back home for online learning. LSU director of marketing and communication Zwelithini Dlamini had this to say:
<blockquote>Around September 14, we are welcoming our first-year students on campus, he said. They will be there for between three to four weeks depending on the faculty because some faculties require practical lessons after which they will go back home and continue virtual learning since we will have taught them how it’s done.</blockquote>
Meanwhile, students at the National University of Science and Technology (NUST) in the Faculties of Commerce, Applied Sciences and Engineering have been on campus since Monday to complete final examinations.
NUST director of communication and marketing Thabani Mpofu said they plan to complete the 2019-2020 calendar before focusing on first-year students.
