SILA Academy Group of Schools founder and director, Silas Mateza, says the private institution is carving out a reputation for academic and sporting excellence.
Located in the suburbs of Budiriro and Mufakose, the school was established 15 years ago.
Mateza said Sila Academy has grown into a respected learning institution with an enrolment of close to 200 learners.
“What began as a modest educational initiative has expanded into three thriving learning centres, reflecting consistent growth and community trust.”
Guided by the principle, “The Sky Is The Only Limit,” the school continues to pursue its vision.
Under the leadership of Mateza, the academy has positioned itself as a centre of both academic discipline and extracurricular vibrancy.
Sila Academy caters for learners from Form 1 to Form 6, offering a balanced curriculum that spans commercial subjects, arts and sciences.
The school’s leadership says the goal is not only to produce high academic achievers but also confident, well-rounded young people prepared for life beyond the classroom.
“We remain committed to providing quality education that empowers learners to pursue their dreams.
“Our strength lies in teamwork from our principals to our teaching staff, all working towards one shared vision.
“Sila Academy is determined to maintain its upward trajectory. With a strong leadership structure, expanding footprint and clear vision, the institution continues to position itself as a rising force in the country’s education landscape.”
The academy operates three centres led by experienced principals: Remember Masungo (Goshen, Budiriro 5B), Farai Kanonda (Ngungunyani Branch, Budiriro 5B), and Perfect Mugebe (Mufakose Branch).
Together, they oversee the institution’s academic programmes and co-curricular activities, which include sporting disciplines that have become a hallmark of the school’s identity.
Parents in the surrounding communities have welcomed the school’s steady growth, citing its discipline, academic focus and emphasis on talent development as key strengths.
