John Mackenzie School is a historic private school situated in Francistown, Botswana.
It caters for the education of boys and girls from Transition (Standard 0) to A-Levels in a multi-cultural, interdenominational environment. The school is Francistown's first English-medium education institution for primary and secondary education. A Cambridge International Examinations (CIE) accredited institution, it is highly regarded as the school of choice in Northern Botswana and the country at large, and as a gateway to the best local and international institutions of higher education.
It is named in honour of Scottish missionary John Mackenzie (1835–99), who spent his working life among, and who argued for the rights of, the Tswana people.
