Sir Harry Johnston International School is rated 3 out of 5 in the category developing future leaders. Read and write reviews about Sir Harry Johnston International School. The school was founded in the early 1950s when Zomba was the capital of Nyasaland Protectorate. In the early 1970s the school became one of five ‘designated schools’ under an agreement with the British government that allowed the centrally funded, private schools to continue employing expatriate teachers. In the 1990s the Designated School Board was disbanded and the school became financially independent selecting to be controlled by a democratically elected board of trustees made up from the parent community. The school consists of a Pre-Nursery and Nursery Class, Primary School and Secondary School enabling the school to cater for children between the ages of 2 and 16. It is centrally located with spectacular views of Zomba Plateau, which rises up to over 2000 metres. It has nine fully equipped classrooms, a science lab, an arts studio and a multi-purpose hall. All students have access to various ICT equipment including laptops (with internet access). Educational resources are purchased overseas if they are unavailable locally. Within the spacious and beautifully landscaped grounds there is a twenty metre swimming pool, two 7-a-side football pitches, netball field, basketball court, nursery playground and a cross country track.
