Martin Chishimba

After Martin Chishimba completed his B.Ed. in Mathematics from the University of Zambia and taught at two local secondary schools, he earned a competitive scholarship to pursue an M.Sc. in Mathematics from the University of Ostrava in the Czech Republic. He went on to teach Mathematics at PRIGO International School, which boasts one of Europe’s best international baccalaureate (IB) programmes.

Yet, Martin longed to return home to Zambia. When he saw Zambia’s President announcing the creation of an ambitious new leadership academy in Lusaka, Martin jumped at the opportunity. “My global experience, combined with local understanding, enables me to bring a unique, well-rounded perspective to Crucible Lusaka. I am excited to guide students through the rigorous curriculum and help them develop critical thinking, problem-solving, and leadership skills.”
