St. Ignatius College is a private Catholic secondary boarding school, located at Chishawasha, near Harare, in the Mashonaland East Province of Zimbabwe. The school was founded by the Society of Jesus in 1962 as the brother institution for St. George’s College, Harare.
From 1962 to 1971 the school was an all-male school; until the nuns of Congregation Jesu helped bring female scholars only for Advanced Level. The College’s sister school is nearby St Dominic’s Chishawasha which meets frequently for social and co-curricula events. In its 59 years of inception it has garnered a name as the hub of profound education maintaining a hold within the top ten list of the national examinations. It linked to St Ignatius’ College in England in its founding and has continuing links to St Augustine, Edinburgh, and Boston College, Massachusetts. The school’s traditional rival is Kutama College.
It became a private institution in January 2020.
