Govt urged to increase e-learning budget

GOVERNMENT should consider increasing the budget for e-learning in schools because it is now a basic need for pupils.

This was revealed by the Parliamentary Portfolio Committee on ICT, Postal and Courier Services acting chairperson Trevor Saruwaka during a fact-finding mission at Sakubva High 1 School in Mutare yesterday.

The fact-finding mission was meant to assess and verify the extent of computerisation in schools and to appreciate the challenges being faced.
