Over 8,000 learners from Grade Four to Grade Nine in Turkana County will be equipped with digital literacy skills, including coding, through the Advancing Computer Skills in Schools Project, which targets 12 primary and junior schools in the county.
The project, funded by the Raspberry Pi Foundation through the Frontier Counties Development Council (FCDC), began in July 2024 with 10 schools in Lodwar.
A corresponding number of teachers were trained on the Foundation's Kenya Institute of Curriculum Development -approved curriculum.
As of the beginning of the second term in May 2025, the project has expanded to include two new schools and five additional teachers.
