Prince Edward was established in 1898 in Salisbury, Southern Rhodesia (now Harare, Zimbabwe), as Salisbury Grammar. It was renamed Salisbury High School in 1906 and adopted its current name in 1925 when visited by Edward, Prince of Wales. It is the second oldest boys’ school in Harare and in Zimbabwe after its main sporting rival, St George’s College.
The School’s badge is a crown and three feathers, granted to it by Prince Edward (later King Edward VIII of the UK) in the 1920s. The school’s colours are maroon and dark green. For its centenary, Prince Edward School adopted a new coat of arms which does not replace the school’s badge. The motto of the school “Tot Facienda Parum Factum” (“So much to do, So little done”) is attributed as Cecil John Rhodes’ last words.
Prince Edward School (Harare) is one of the oldest schools in Harare. In the 125 years that the school has existed, it has been widely regarded as one of the premier schools in Zimbabwe, Southern Africa and the world at large. Over the years, Prince Edward School has gained a reputation for academic, cultural and sporting excellence, producing men of integrity and value who have become widely influential in Zimbabwe, Africa, and the rest of the world. Today the school strives to maintain and even surpass this high standard.
