By giving all senior high and TVET schools in the country access to teaching and learning management systems, digital learning materials, and educational gadgets, the project seeks to improve senior high school education.

The government’s decision to give laptops to every SHS student was announced by Vice President Dr. Mahamudu Bawumia last year. The achievement of this goal shows the government’s dedication to improving secondary education through programs like this laptop project and the noteworthy free SHS program.

The laptops may be accessed from anywhere in the nation, even when they are offline (not connected to the internet), and come preloaded with programs, including textbooks.

Students no longer need to carry about their textbooks as they may now carry laptops.

On March 25, the same day, the pupils’ laptops will be distributed after the launch.
