All our full time teachers are either university graduates or diploma holders and the majority are trained teachers. All have been educated in Tanzania with the majority of graduates coming from Tanzania’s premier university of Dar Es Salaam. The Academic Team
There is a senior academic team of nine to supervise the running of the school, made up of the Heads of Arts, Science, Commerce, the Academic Master and the Head of the Senior School Department.
There are teachers in each of these subjects. Administration
He is ably assisted by our Chief Accountant, Evarist Stemile. Pastoral Care
We have attractive grounds which are maintained by our own gardeners, and we also employ a security company to ensure that the environment is safe for our students. |
There is a national shortage of teachers in Tanzania resulting from a major expansion of secondary education. Class sizes are usually very large and a number of lessons simply cannot be taught. At Mvumi Secondary School we are fortunate that we have a large staff and a healthy teacher/student ratio: 27 full time teachers for our 450 students.
Francis Malugu, the Headmaster, is an experienced teacher of many years standing. He has had former experience as a Headmaster and has also been a national examiner, an experience shared by a number of our staff. He is a teacher of Mathematics and Physics.
