Schools need swipe machines for parents to pay fees and for kids to swipe at the tuckshop says Dokora

Minister of Primary and Secondary Education Dr Lazarus Dokora has said that schools need to be capacitated with swipe machines to enable parents and pupils to use electronic money. Said Dokora:

We also note on the recent budget review statement, the request that we had made to the Ministry of Finance and Economic Development, to say, we need all our schools to be capacitated with Point of Sale machines so parents can swipe — so school kids can swipe at the tuck shop

In liaison with the Reserve Bank of Zimbabwe, we issued a statement at the beginning of the year, but sometimes our managers in the districts here will say, ‘well the schools are wanting cash for the uniforms not swipe money’.

And you look everywhere and say, ‘where are you going to get the cash?’ You cannot be going against the grain.

You have to be compliant. So, a special effort is now being made by the Central Government through the Ministry of Finance and Economic Development to capacitate our schools so they can have the swipe machines in place.
