It might sound bizarre paying over $5000 USD school fees for 1 child but trust me its worth it sometimes. There are a number of these 4 figure fees schools in Zimbabwe and I will be listing them in this article.
Before we get into the list let me make a correction on my title "where only the rich can go in 2026". If you are blessed with big brains or gifted in sports you can land yourself a scholarship at some of these S tier schools.
For big brain students I would assume most people in the middle class prefer our usual mission schools like St Faith's, Marist Brothers, Pamushana etc. S tier expensive schools are usually best for sports but of cause there are private schools like Knowstics which greatly excel in academics so do your research.
