This paper, while acknowledging the communal factors, diversity of religious and cultural lifestyles, language differences, socioeconomic differences, and the serious polarisation that divides the different races of Zimbabwe and South Africa, attempts to address the problem of securing equal educational opportunities for all. As it is a known fact that pupils cannot reach their full development when denied equal educational opportunities, and, since all pupils in these two societies basically have the freedom to be educated, attempts to eradicate inequalities in educational provision based on racial, socioeconomic and religious grounds which were created during the apartheid era are made. Suggestions are also made on how to identify these disparities. The need for further investigation on what best methods could be applied in order to eradicate them is also recommended.
