2025 · International Journal of Development and Sustainability

Summary. Rural secondary schools in Zimbabwe's Mwenezi District lack digital infrastructure, network coverage, and ICT equipment needed to implement the updated national curriculum. The study identifies the digital divide as a major barrier to inclusive education in remote and resettlement areas. Researchers recommend improving network coverage, installing solar projects, and providing hardware and software support to enable rural teachers and learners to meet 21st-century curriculum demands.
