Zimbabwe: Schools turn children away
Harare: Rather than encouraging enrollment, schools in Zimbabwe are asking children not to report for lessons.
"We have received, with concern, continuing reports that some children [in Zimbabwe] are not going to school because there are no teachers," said Roland Monash, deputy representative of the United Nations Children's Fund (UNICEF). UNICEF keeps 150,000 Zimbabwean children at school by paying their fees.
