Equipping learners for digital success

A large-scale digital rollout targeting rural schools across South Africa is already underway, with 1,200 young people employed nationwide as part of an ambitious effort to expand access to technology and connectivity in underserved communities. The National Teq ICT Innovation Programme is introducing fully equipped computer centres, ICT learning systems, and unlimited Wi-Fi access to schools across all nine provinces. The programme is designed to modernise learning environments while equipping communities with the tools needed to participate in a rapidly evolving digital economy.
