For two months after Idai, the secondary school in Guara Guara was used as a temporary accommodation centre for displaced locals. Now, the school is back up and running but classes get cancelled every time it rains as there’s no roof. An eight-week holiday started last month, said José Miguel, the headmaster (pictured), adding that “when the students return… it’s not clear the school will still be standing”. More than 600 schools were damaged by Cyclone Idai, according to UNICEF, disrupting education for some 300,000 children.
