This is the moment eight students are filmed snogging and fondling each other in class leading to their expulsion.
According to local media, nine students, including the cameraperson, have been expelled from the St Therese High School near the town of Rusape in Manicaland Province in eastern Zimbabwe.
The incident sparked outrage and parents and the local education authorities criticised the school for lack of supervision, according to reports.
The video shows young couples in the corners of the room kissing, cuddling and fondling each other.
At one point, a girl is heard laughing and telling the cameraperson “siyana neni iwe” (leave me alone).
When quizzed by local media, the school headmistress, identified as Mrs Euphrasia Mudiwa, diverted attention onto the education authority.
She said: “I cannot talk to you. You should instead speak with the education secretary Mr Lawrence Chibvuri in Mutare.
“St Therese High School belongs to the church and he is in the best position to talk to you. You could speak with officials at the ministry in Rusape.”
According to local media, the frisky students in the footage have since been expelled from the high school.
Reports said that some of them were boarding at the school while others were day students.
