This study evaluates the Textile Technology and Design (TTD) curriculum in Zimbabwean secondary schools, highlighting the need for performance improvement in a competitive work environment. Employing a post-positivism research paradigm with mixed methods, it examines operations procedures, challenges, and enhancement strategies among staff and pupils. indicate prevalent use of standard operations with gaps in pattern development and finishing processes. The study suggests integrating a method study unit for systematic analysis, optimizing production systems for TTD self-sustainability, and establishing network-sharing centres to bridge the gap between traditional methods and technological advancements
