Soldiers and police to mark examinations

The Zimbabwe Schools Examinations Council (Zimsec) has requested the army and police to take over the marking of primary and secondary school examinations, citing lack of funds to pay teachers.

It is now understood that some military personnel have been undergoing training in examination marking as part of government's strategy to counter an anticipated marking boycott by teachers.
