Abstract
Creation of the independent Republic of Zimbabwe in 1980 brought to an end 90 years of colonial rule, during which the majority of the country’s children received little or no education. Four-fifths of Zimbabwe’s rapidly increasing population of about 12 million live in rural areas, and agriculture is the dominant economic sector, although manufacturing and mining are also significant.
