Ministry of General Education

The Ministry of Education is a ministry in Zambia. It is headed by the Minister of Education and oversees primary, secondary and tertiary education.

In 2015 the ministry was split, with the Ministry of Higher Education created to oversee tertiary and vocational education and the original ministry renamed the Ministry of General Education, with a remit to oversee primary and secondary education.[1] After the 2021 general elections the two ministries were merged back to form a single Ministry of Education.[2]
