Gokwe School of Nursing has recorded pass rates of between 91.6 and 100 percent across three graduating groups, with the institution producing some of the country’s top-performing candidates in the final Nurses Council examinations.
A total of 108 primary care nurses graduated at the institution’s 2026 graduation ceremony held at Leisure Lounge in Gokwe South yesterday.
Speaking at the ceremony, Health and Child Care Minister Dr Douglas Mombeshora, who was represented by Midlands provincial medical director Dr Mary Muchekeza, attributed the achievement to the dedication of tutors, students and hospital management.
He said the high pass rates reflected the commitment of the institution’s staff and students towards maintaining high standards in nursing education.
“I am particularly excited by the high pass rates of between 91.6 and 100 percent that the three groups graduating today achieved. To me, this is a demonstration of dedication and commitment at the highest level by the tutors, the students themselves and the hospital management that has been giving leadership,” he said.
The minister also revealed that the school produced a gold medallist who was ranked number one nationally in the final Nurses Council examinations, while another candidate secured fifth position.
