“Candidates should be assisted to cover a significant portion of the syllabus efficiently and effectively, including timely submissions of al their Continuous Assessment Learning Area activity components (CALA),” he said.
“All candidates must have their CALA marks moderated as guided by ZIMSEC, at the rightful timeframe, so as to receive their full results.”
Mhike said the holiday lessons will take place between 19 and 30 August, a period of 10 working days, only.
“For the year, 2024, authority is granted for schools to conduct vacation school during the August holidays for the examination classes of Grade7, Form Four and Upper Six,” he said.
