We firmly believe that the environment in which children are taught and learn is of paramount importance. We are privileged to have a school set in the most beautiful parkland setting, Borrowdale Brooke. The teaching facilities at Heritage are of the highest standard.  The opening of the New boarding house “Acacia House” is an exciting development which will raise the standard of Boarding in Zimbabwe to a new level.

The Heritage aims to attract a diverse body of pupils to the School and has taken active steps to ensure that this is the case. Entry to Heritage is competitive.
