HARARE - Minister of Primary and Secondary Education Torerayi Moyo has welcomed the approval of Starlink connectivity in Zimbabwe, describing it as a transformative breakthrough for the country's education sector.
Posting on his X account, Moyo said the initiative will especially benefit rural and underserved schools, helping to bridge the digital divide and expand access to modern learning tools.
