One of modern Malawi’s most successful ventures was to establish a school, the Kamuzu Academy, which has become known as "the Eton of Africa". The brainchild of Dr Banda, the aim of the Academy has been to provide an education second to none for the country’s future leaders and intellectual elite. The academy is east of Kasungu, just off the M18. Set in beautiful grounds, the buildings can be viewed by appointment.
