The Government, through the Ministry of Primary and Secondary Education, has reiterated that schools should allow parents and guardians to pay fees and levies in the currency of their choice, and not force them to pay exclusively in foreign currency.
In a statement issued this Monday, 06 May 2024, ahead of the commencement of the Second Term, the Ministry also reminded schools not to adjust fees willy-nilly but to charge approved fees.
The Ministry highlighted that the interbank rate should be applied when parents pay fees in ZiG, no learner should be sent home for non-payment of fees, parents should pay fees on time, and schools should not parents and guardians to buy uniforms and stationery from the school. Reads the statement:
<blockquote>
The Ministry of Primary and Secondary Education appreciates that the First Term’s school holiday has ended and that pupils were given adequate time to rest and are ready to resume term two schooling tomorrow, the 7th of May, 2024.
As we approach the commencement of the second term on 7 May 2024, the Ministry of Primary and Secondary Education would like to advise the nation and reiterate its policy regarding the payment of approved school fees and levies.
The current local currency in the form of Zimbabwe Gold (ZIG) as announced by the Reserve Bank of Zimbabwe through a monetary policy statement, is a legal tender of transaction in schools.
It forms a key basis of transactions in the payment of fees and levies and in procuring of other good services and assets, amongst the basket of other currencies.
Therefore, school authorities are expected to abide by the pronouncement made by the Reserve Bank of Zimbabwe.
Parents/guardians must be given an opportunity to pay in the currency of their choice, and not exclusively in a certain currency and especially foreign currency, the USD in particular.
For parents and guardians paying fees in ZIG, they must pay at the prevailing interbank rate of the day the transaction is made.
The Ministry will continue to work with other Government agencies, such as the Zimbabwe Anti-Corruption Commission, the Financial Intelligence Unit, the Zimbabwe Republic Police, as well as the internal inspectorate of the Ministry to ensure compliance.
The Ministry would also want to reaffirm that the obligation to pay approved school fees and levies remains with the parents and guardians and not with the pupils.
Parents and guardians must pay school fees and levies to allow schools to meet their operational costs and overheads. No child should be sent away from school due to non-payment of fees and levies.
Furthermore, parents and guardians are free to purchase uniforms and stationery wherever they find it affordable as long as they adhere to the specifications set by the schools.
The Ministry of Primary and Secondary Education remains committed to facilitating access to a relevant, quality, inclusive, equitable and comprehensive Heritage-Based Education for all Zimbabweans.
Any school heads that defy this directive will have disciplinary measures taken against them.

Ministry Of Education Speaks On School Fees And Uniforms

Independent development economist Prosper Chitambara said President Emmerson Mnangagwa is under pressure to leave a legacy for himself as he is set to begin his second and final term as the Head of State.
Speaking to <a href="https://www.aljazeera.com/news/2023/8/27/suffering-is-continuing-mnangagwa-declared-winner-in-zimbabwe-election">Al Jazeera</a> before the results of the Harmonised Elections held on 23 and 24 August were announced, Chitambara said Mnangagwa’s Second Term could be better than his first. He said:
<blockquote>
I think if ZANU PF wins, the party will be under a lot of pressure to make significant economic improvements.
He [Mnangagwa] will be under a lot of pressure to leave a legacy for himself given this will be his last term and this could be a good thing for the economy.
As such, his second term could be better than his first. That is the best-case scenario.
</blockquote>
Chitambara added that the worst-case scenario would be a continuation of the economic policies of the past five years of Mnangagwa’s administration.
Since Mnangagwa took over from the late Robert Mugabe in November 207 following a military coup, the Zimbabwe dollar has depreciated against the United States dollar owing to the unbridled printing of money.
Prices of goods are so high that ordinary people cannot afford them and the majority of Zimbabweans have been forced to take on some sort of menial work to survive.
Meanwhile, Taurai Gwatidzo, a Harare-based shoe cobbler told Al Jazeera that ZANU PF’s victory in the 2023 Harmonised Elections means that suffering will continue.
olo Zuma, a 37-year-old mother of three, said that she if ZANU PF wins she will become a sex worker to earn a living for her children.
On Saturday, ZEC declared ZANU PF candidate Emmerson Mnangagwa the winner with 2,350,711 votes which translates to 52.6%, while CCC’s Nelson Chamisa received 1 967 343 which translates to 44% of the total votes cast.
However, the opposition spokesperson Promise Mkwananzi said on X, previously known as Twitter, that the party rejected the results.

Mnangagwa's Second Term Could Be Better Than His First, Says Economist Chitambara

Some teacher unions say their members are not ready for the commencement of the Second Term and are incapacitated but are dragging themselves to work to avoid reprisals by the Public Service Commission (PSC).
The 2023 Second Term starts today, 08 May, but unlike in previous years, teacher unions have not been urging their members to go on strike.
Progressive Teachers Union of Zimbabwe (PTUZ) president Takavafira Zhou on Sunday told <a href="https://www.newsday.co.zw/local-news/article/200011249/outcry-over-school-fees-hike">NewsDay</a> that teachers lack motivation to effectively discharge their duties. Zhou said:
<blockquote>
Teachers are demotivated and have outstanding legitimate demands that have not been addressed by the PSC [Public Service Commission] emanating from their discrimination in salary increases in which other government workers have been awarded salary increases four times that of teachers.
Above all, the quantum leap of inflation and increase in basic (commodity prices) has left them virtually incapacitated.
They are parents as well and together with other parents have no money to pay for exorbitant fees paid in US dollars, particularly in boarding schools.
</blockquote>
Zimbabwe Teachers Association (ZTA) secretary-general Goodwill Taderera said:
<blockquote>
As teachers, we have gotten used to the government ill-treating us, particularly on salaries.
So in terms of preparedness, the teachers are not very much prepared, but they are sympathetic to the learners.
</blockquote>
Taderera added that teachers were going to work to evade punishment from their employer.
Last month, the Government awarded civil servants a 100 percent salary increment but it has been rendered worthless by the precipitous fall in value of the Zimbabwe dollar on the parallel market.
Before the salary increment was announced, the rate was roughly US$1: ZWL$1 800 but it has since moved to US$1:2 700.
The Government also increased the COVID-19 allowance to US$250 for all civil servants excluding those in the health sector, up from US$200.
Civil servants are, however, demanding US$840 per month.

"Teachers Dragging Themselves To Work To Avoid Punishment"

The Ministry of Primary and Secondary Education has directed all schools to revert to the normal five-day learning week starting from today, 08 May 2023.
In a circular dated 03 May, the Ministry’s Permanent Secretary Tumisang Thabela said there is no longer a need to rotate attendance at schools short of classrooms which was done to minimise COVID-19 infections.
She said rotational attendance was introduced in August 2021 as a response to rising COVID-19 cases but this has now been cancelled with immediate effect.
Thabela, however, urged schools to follow standard procedures and boarding schools to avoid overcrowding as the coronavirus is still a threat. She said:
<blockquote>
Given that there has been a relaxation of COVID-19 restrictions in the country and in accordance to the citizenry to consider being vaccinated, alternate attendance to school by learners as stipulated in the previous circulars is hereby cancelled with immediate effect.
However, the Ministry of Primary and Secondary Education reiterates the need for strict and close observance of the standard operating procedures in all schools.
Boarding schools should not enroll beyond their capacities and overcrowd pupils.
</blockquote>
Last week, the World Health Organisation declared that COVID-19 is no longer a global public health emergency.
Thabela also reminded all schools, public and private, that they must accept all forms of payment for school fees and levies. She said:
<blockquote>
All modes of payment currently obtaining in Zimbabwe shall be acceptable for fees and levies settlement. Requests by schools for payment in a specific currency are not acceptable.
Parents or guardians opting to pay fees in US dollars or in Rand should be allowed to do so calculated against the prevailing bank rate on the authorised fee and levy structure and receipted, banked and expended as such up to the acquittal point.
</blockquote>
On Saturday, Ministry of Primary and Secondary Education spokesperson Taungana Ndoro <a href="https://www.sundaynews.co.zw/government-on-high-alert-to-prevent-illegal-school-fees-hikes/">told State media</a> that they are on high alert to ensure that schools desist from illegal fee hikes as the 2023 Second Term commences.

Govt Suspends Rotational Attendance In Schools

The government has postponed the reopening of schools from 29 June to 28 July to allow education and treasury authorities to mobilise for the provision of adequate resources.
This was said by the Minister of Information, Publicity and Broadcasting Services Monica Mutsvangwa while addressing the media during a post-Cabinet briefing this Tuesday in Harare. Mutsvangwa said:
<blockquote>In line with His Excellency, the President’s decision that schools should start re-opening, Cabinet resolved that the re-opening of schools be moved from the proposed 29 June to 28 July 2020 to allow the Ministry of Primary and Secondary Education to engage treasury and other stakeholders to mobilise for the provision of adequate resources.</blockquote>
However, the decision to re-open schools does not affect the June examinations which will run from 29 June to 22 July, as initially announced.
Primary and Secondary Education Minister Cain Mathema said an average of 11 candidates will sit at each examination centre to enable social distancing to be observed.
