334 Senior High Schools to be provided with computer lab – Ursula Owusu
To ensure knowledge acquired in Information Communication Technology is beneficial in Senior High Schools, the Communication and Digitization Ministry said the only option is to make the subject a practical one.
Sector minister, Ursula Owusu-Ekuful, explains that the government is poised to provide 334 SHSs across the country with computer laboratories.
In a media briefing after the commissioning of two newly constructed classroom blocks at St. Margret Mary Senior High Technical and Akweibu Basic schools, the Ablekuma West legislator indicated that the Communications Ministry is in talks with the Education Ministry to commence the project.
“The best way to sustain any such initiative is to mainstream it. I know the curriculum has been changed. ICT education is part of the curriculum. We need to make the subject practical enough for the students.
”I am already having conversations with the Ministry of Education. We are in the process of providing 334 SHS with 40-seater ICT laboratories across the country”.
