South Africa's Basic Education Minister Angelina Motshekga has heaped praise on Zimbabwe's education system saying her country has much to learn.
Motshekga said she admired how Zimbabwe run it's public examinations which periodically suffers examination leakages.
"Historically, South Africa looks forward to the education system of Zimbabwe and thus we never hesitated to take up your invitation to this meeting to see how best we can collaborate," she is quoted saying.
Zimbabwe was recognised in the past as having arguably the best education system in Africa.
