Hopley, a peri-urban settlement located 17 km south of Harare, is home to over 200,000 people, with approximately 3,000 school-aged children. However, it lacks essential services such as adequate schools, sanitation, and health facilities, leading to extreme poverty and marginalization. Access to education is challenging due to the absence of public schools. While private schools exist, they are expensive, inadequately equipped, and staffed by underqualified teachers. Consequently, children either travel long distances to neighboring suburbs for education or remain idle, exposing them to social ills.
