Representing the Director, Education Support Services, the Deputy Director, Support Health Education Division, Mrs. Njideka Ogbuke, commended the Academy’s efforts to enhance learners’ capacity to engage meaningfully with technology. She noted the growing importance of technology in education and stressed the need to strengthen teachers’ capacity in emerging technologies while ensuring alignment with national education priorities.
The Deputy Director, School Support Division, Mr. Fapohunda Solomon, described the initiative as laudable and assured the delegation that the presentation and recommendations would be conveyed to Management for consideration and further direction.
