The second Samsung Smart School for teachers situated within the Ogun State Model College, Abeokuta has been commissioned.
President Muhammad Buhari commissioned the school as part of the activities to mark the 40th anniversary of the creation of Ogun state.
This is coming shortly after Samsung opened its first Smart School for teachers in Abuja in December last year.
The Smart School for teachers in Ogun is the second of five to be launched in Nigeria, with others planned for Rivers, Delta and Imo states. This will result in a collective 10,000 teachers receiving training as primary beneficiaries, and a further 5,000 students impacted as secondary beneficiaries, over a five year period.
Managing Director of Samsung Electronics West Africa, Chang Wook Lee said the Smart School concept is implemented in urban schools with the infrastructure, but not the skills needed to use IT for teaching and learning.
