Virtual classrooms a reality for Atteridgeville learners
Over 14 000 learners are set to benefit from virtual classrooms, that include robotics and coding elements, due to a public-private partnership between the Vodacom Foundation and the Department of Basic Education (DBE).
According to Takalani Netshitenzhe, the Director of External Affairs at Vodacom South Africa, its Virtual Classroom Solution (VCS) was approved by the Independent Communications Authority of South Africa at the height of COVID-19, to enable remote access to teaching and learning in poor communities.
