The academy will have the facilities to accommodate 400 students from first to twelfth grade.The project was announced by Education Minister Zeferino Martins on Friday in Maputo, shortly after his arrival home from a working visit to Kenya.Martins noted that “the education academy will focus on teaching talented young entrepreneurs, concentrating on entrepreneurial values, leadership and knowledge. This institution will be open to students from low, middle and high income families. However, destitute students or those with few resources will be admitted on special criteria yet to be defined”.The academy will follow the curriculum of the International Baccalaureate.Martins was in Kenya at the invitation of the Aga Khan Foundation.
