The Education Technology Gap in Kenya

Teachers are among the lowest paid professionals in Kenya. COVID-19 exposed our digital divide. The Competency Based Education (CBE) curriculum demands digital literacy — yet most teachers can't afford a new laptop.

~12%

of Kenyans use a computer (CA/KNBS 2023/24)

44%

of schools had no teacher trained in digital literacy (ESJ, 2019)

90%+

of teachers lack access to a modern laptop for teaching

Refurbished devices are not the answer. They're outdated, insecure, and unreliable. Teachers deserve better. Students deserve better.

Having access is not the same as owning. Many students and teachers share devices or rely on smartphones — which are not designed to manage an education curriculum. A phone's UI is not built for creating lesson plans, writing reports, or learning the Competency Based Curriculum.

As a Product Development Manager at one of the global ICT companies, I helped pioneer PC as a Service (PCaaS) with Intel. It prospered in Europe. It took center stage in the US. But here in Kenya? Our teachers can't even afford a used computer.

I realised I had to do something. The Shule Project is my legacy for good.

One Device. One Tree. A Greener Kenya.

For every device that leaves our warehouse — laptop, mouse, keyboard, thin client — The Shule Project plants a KEPHIS-approved tree. Teachers and students plant the trees in their respective geographies, turning every device deployment into an act of environmental stewardship.

  • KEPHIS approved seedlings for your region
  • Teachers and students plant the trees
  • Educational component — students learn environmental stewardship
  • Every device and component makes our country greener
