Education

Zimbabwe’s academic year runs from January to December, with 3 terms and national examinations written during November, administered by the Zimbabwe Schools Examination Council. International examinations can also be written in June and November which are offered by a private education system. There are a number of schools in the country, including both private and public institutions, mostly surrounding most major cities. 

Healthcare

The public health system is the largest provider of health-care services, complemented by Mission hospitals and health care delivered by non-governmental organizations (NGOs). The economic decline and political instability have unfortunately led to a reduction in health-care budgets and provision, specifically in more remote areas.

Shopping

Zimbabwe caters for all needs, with supermarkets, hardware stores, banks and pharmacies in all major cities while supplies in rural area may be a bit more limited. 

Travel

Zimbabwe is neighboured by Mozambique, South Africa, Botswana, Malawi and Zambia, making it an ideal place from which to explore even more of Africa. There is an international airport in Harare; the largest in the country also serving as the home of national airline, Air Zimbabwe.
