Luveve Secondary School is a government school in Bulawayo, Zimbabwe. It was established in 1959 as a multi-racial technical college, but later became a secondary school for black students as the technical college was producing too many black technicians in competition to the white technicians. There are no racial barriers anymore.
This school was started as a Technical Teacher Training College around 1959.
It was built to train black Africans in technical trades with a view to them returning to their homelands to teach their peers the trades that they had learned. At that time only the staff were multi-racial, the majority being white, some local, but many brought in on special contracts from the UK.
The main trades taught were: Brickwork, Plastering, Painting and Decorating, Carpentry and Joinery, Motor Engineering, Electrical, Plumbing, Engineering (Machining).
