Kenya’s schools ill-equipped for digital skills training
A computer research center at a learning institution. Only 24.6 percent of teachers in secondary schools have gone through some form of digital literacy training.
Only 33.8 percent of Kenya’s secondary schools own teacher teaching devices and only 40 percent own operational computer labs, a fresh report now indicates, shining a spotlight on the deep-rooted gaps that could hurt the country’s ambition of attaining status as the continental digital and tech hub.
The survey, conducted by a non-profit organisation Usawa Agenda and published by the Kenya National Bureau of Statistics (KNBS), further indicates that nationally, only 24.6 percent of teachers in secondary schools have gone through some form of digital literacy training.
