In a project to promote education in Africa, in which eighty per cent of Form Four leavers would be computer literate by 2008, Education minister George Saitoti said that Information Communication Technology (ICT) would be taught in teachers training colleges to prepare them for the project.
Speaking during Rift Valley's Tambach Teachers Training College's graduation ceremony, he said that Kenya is keen on promoting ICT based education to its people. Nearly 8,000 teachers are employed and more would be employed as soon as the Government allocated more funds to his ministry.
He also mentioned that the ministry had embarked on secondary schools' expansion to absorb the large number of pupils who have joined school as a result of the Government's free primary education programme.
