During the month of November ZPP recorded a total of 4 cases on violation
of the right to education in Guruve North, Mberengwa East and Kuwadzana

On 8 November at Kuwadzana 3 primary school in Ward 37, the school head
Mrs Gunje turned away half of the school for not paying tuition fees. On 5
November in Mberengwa East, ward 7 school pupils at Mataruse Secondary
were turned away for non-fees payment by the headmaster. Between 7 and

primary school in Guruve North were turned away from school.
Article 26 of the UDHR states that everyone has the right to education and
that education is a basic human right that works to reduce significantly
poverty facing many men and women , level inequalities and ensure
sustainable development. This is supported by Article 11 of the ACHPR.
Section 75 of the Constitution states that every Zimbabwean has a right to a
basic state-funded education, including adult basic education and further
education.
