ICTTN Press Conference
The ICTTN submits a Memorandum on ‘The Implementation of ICT as a Curricular Subject in Primary Schools’.
This Memorandum articulates the current precarious position of ICT teachers within primary schools and the Ministry of Education & Scientific Research (MOESR). This document also proposes a strategic way forward for integrating ICT within primary schools by tapping into the existing pool of trained and experienced ICT Teachers.
The purpose of this memorandum lies in the achievement of the basic objectives of each ICT teacher, as listed hereunder:
1. Maintaining ICT as a curricular subject taught by specialist ICT Teachers in primary schools.
2. Changing our status to that of permanent specialist ICT Teachers.
3. Acknowledgement of our four years’ contract as permanent service.
4. Extension of our role to that of ICT Coordinators in order to facilitate the use of ICT as a tool for teaching other subjects.
The rationale underpinning this Memorandum is the acknowledgement of ICT as a curricular subject requiring specialist ICT teachers, and the need to normalize the status of the latter as permanent specialist ICT Teachers.
