History

The Methodist Church in Zimbabwe acquired a farm next to Chibero College of Agriculture in Chivero communal lands, Mhondoro, so it could build a church and school to facilitate the settlement of church members. The school taught primary school and secondary school levels. The campus was hosted multiple buildings, including school blocks, residencies for boys and girls, sports fields, and teacher's accommodations. The secondary school curriculum focused on technical education. Girls were taught home economics, food and nutrition, and fashion and fabrics, while boys were taught construction and agriculture.

O levels were introduced in the 1970s. Enrollment expanded to four classes by the 1980s.

Advanced levels were introduced in the late 1980s under School Principal Mr. Jumo. Subjects offered included science, band, and art.
