Ordinary Level Performance

At Ordinary Level, our pass rate rose from 82.2% in 2020 to 97.5% in 2024, before easing slightly to 96.5% in 2025.

This represents an overall improvement of 14.3 percentage points across the period. The trend reflects sustained progress in teaching and learning, with 2024 recording our highest Ordinary Level pass rate to date.

Advanced Level Performance

Advanced Level performance has been consistently very high, ranging from 95.6% to 100% across the reported years.

After a modest decline from 98.04% in 2020 to 95.6% in 2022, the pass rate recovered to 98.5% in 2023 and reached 100% in both 2024 and 2025. Maintaining a 100% pass rate for 2 consecutive years is a notable achievement and reflects strong academic outcomes among our candidates.

Beyond the Classroom

Our learners have made a visible mark from District through to National and now International level.

In 2026, a team of 5 learners and 2 teachers claimed first position in Quiz, Debate and Public Speaking at the National competitions, earning the right to represent Zimbabwe in Kigali, Rwanda in December.
