Abstract

The article identified and classified the primary school stakeholders in Harare, Zimbabwe. The research used a case study and literature analysis results to develop a framework for analysing and classifying primary school stakeholders for enhancing the quality of the decisions by the administrators. The research collected both primary and secondary data from WhatsApp groups of Harare primary school instructors/teachers and parents/guardian sand the literature for analysis. The Voluntary sampling design was used to select the respondents. The research used data that was gathered from forty-five journal articles and sixty primary schoolteachers/instructors and parents/guardians. The research found that a successful implementation of the primary school stakeholder analysis makes the stakeholder identification and classification processes very simple and easy. There was significant a relationship between the primary school and its stakeholders but there was also challenges. This research developed the Stakeholder Identification, classification and Engagement (SICE) framework for identifying, classifying and engaging primary school stakeholders.
