ICT CENTRE FOR BAWKU SCHOOLS (JUNIOR GRAPHIC, PAGE 6, JAN 26, 2011)

The Member of Parliament (MP) for the Bawku Central Constituency, Mr. Adamu Daramani Sakande with support from E-Toys and More, is to construct an Ultra Modern Information Communication Technology (ICT) Centre for some schools within the municipality.
The facility which will be located within the Winamzua Cluster of Schools when completed will also serve as an Information Resource Centre for schools in the Bawku Central Constituency.
It will also facilitate ICT training and development for interested residents.
Speaking to journalists in Bawku, Mr. Sakande said apart from the external support from E-Toys and More, the facility valued at about GHc20,000 would be funded from his share of the District Assembly Common Fund.
He bemoaned the lack of a well resourced ICT centre in the Bawku Municipality and the inability of schools there to establish their own computer laboratories, which he explained was hindering the teaching and learning of ICT at the junior and senior high school levels.
He expressed the hope that the completion of the project would contribute greatly to the improvement of ICT education in the area.
In a related development, E-Toys and More also donated some teaching and learning materials to the St. Anthony Kindergarten.
