Connecting All Schools to the Internet for Improved Learning Outcomes
The Kenya Kwanza government promised to improve learning outcomes by pledging to connect all schools to the Internet.
In the Smart Poles project launched in June 2023, the KPLC CEO stated that they’re engaged in a discussion with the Ministry of ICT to provide infrastructure for internet connectivity targeting public institutions such as schools and hospitals through a framework that is yet to be developed.
So far, the second phase of the Digischool internet project is ongoing in Machakos after a successful completion of phase 1, which benefited up to 6000 students.
