Dr Matiang’i said that an inclusive and holistic approach will be adopted. Already, a framework that defines the ecosystem for effective delivery has been developed. Four (4) pillars that are critical to the project delivery have been identified as:
1) Development of digital content.
2) Power supply to schools
3) Teachers are adequately trained and prepared on use of ICTs
4) Content is accessible through multiple platforms (devices).
The programme will work closely with institutions of higher learning and Kenya innovators and developers. Some aspects of the programme have already been delivered. This includes power to schools, digital content and teacher training.
The cost of the first phase of the project is estimated at 17 billion shillings and will deliver 1.2 million devices in the next two years to cover all public primary schools. The pilot phase of 150 schools is planned for September, 2015.
This follows a recent directive by the Office of the President that the Ministry of ICT heads the programme.
