Abstract
The prevalence of hearing impairment in children in Zimbabwe is significant, even as a conservative measure amongst children attending school. Hearing impairment challenges the academic, career and social potential of young children. Regular screening, such as this could help target preventative measures that may improve the hearing impaired child's potential in terms of social interaction, academic achievement, and work opportunities.
