Learners doing Grade Seven, Form Three and Form Four are encouraged to log into mopse.zw.learningpassport.unicef.org.<\/p>\n<p>They are going to find content that has already been loaded to that website which will assist them to do their work while they are at home.<\/p>\n<p>I also want to remind parents that when we return to school, it is not all the children that are going to be in the classroom at the same time. We are going to follow a decongested school attendance.<\/p>\n<p>Children are going to follow alternative days reporting for duty, we are doing so because our classroom space is not adequate for COVID-19 protocols and regulations.<\/p>\n<p>When children remain home while others are at school, we encourage them to engage in radio lessons, television lessons and other online platforms.<\/p>\n<p>The community outreach programme is running under the theme \u201cCommunity outreach for enhanced inclusivity: Enhancing learner diversity in schools\u201d.
