Academy Overview

📌 Need Statement

Exam candidates in Zimbabwe need personalised academic support to improve study habits, subject comprehension and exam performance as there are widespread academic struggles faced by students. Every year over 100,000 or more students are at risk of academic failure. For instance, in 2022, 198,032 students failed their O-Level exams, with similar figures in 2023 of 130,601 and 133,128 in 2024. This adds up to approximately over 400,000 students who failed to pass 5+ subjects with grade C or better and advance to A-Level or university. Over the past 22 years, we estimate approximately 3.7 million students have faced similar challenges.

This support is provided through our Learning Management System where students have access to study materials and exam practices.
