The Vice President, Dr Mahamudu Bawumia, has assured that every student will receive a tablet to aid in their learning.

He disclosed this at a brief ceremony in Kumasi on Wednesday, June 12, 2024 to officially launch the distribution of the government’s one student one initiative to senior high school students in the region.

Dr. Bawumia said the government remains committed to ensuring a digitally modernized environment for teaching and learning in senior high schools across the country.

He explained that recent strategic interventions to digitally reform the school environment aim to ensure that graduates of the country’s education system fully embrace and participate in the fourth industrial revolution.

“Ghana is among the few countries in the world where the government has supplied students with tablet computers to ensure the future does not elude our children.”

The Vice President presented tablets to some students, with all senior high schools in the region expected to distribute the tablets at no cost.

Some 1.2 million students in public senior high schools across the country are expected benefit from the free gadgets.

The Vice President was accompanied by members of Parliament, senior party officials, and education managers.
