Headmasters of schools with zero percent pass rates to be fired or demoted: Dokora

The Minister of Primary and Secondary Education, Dr Lazarus Dokora has warned underperforming headmasters whose schools get zero percent pass rates in public examinations that they will be fired.

Speaking in Gweru yesterday, Dokora said:

We have schools that have recorded zero percent pass rates in Zimsec examinations both primary and secondary. We are very worried about that and as a ministry we want to warn such school heads that they risk being either demoted or even fired for poor performance.

We don’t employ people to underperform and it is important for these headmasters to start working hard to improve results or risk being demoted or fired
