In a major move to boost digital literacy, Islamabad will introduce computer and AI classes in 150 primary schools under the Federal Directorate of Education starting next week. This initiative aims to equip students with essential tech skills, preparing them for a future driven by technology.
A collaborative effort between the Ministry of Federal Education and the National University of Sciences and Technology (NUST), the program ensures that the curriculum is innovative, relevant, and taught by qualified computer fellows.
Designed with input from leading tech companies, the curriculum will focus on foundational computer skills and artificial intelligence concepts, ensuring that young learners engage effectively. To support this effort, the IT infrastructure in schools will be upgraded to provide access to the latest technology.
This step aligns with the government’s vision to enhance digital education across Pakistan, paving the way for future opportunities in the tech landscape. Parents and educators can anticipate a transformative chapter in their children’s education, aimed at developing the next generation of tech innovators.
