The Kwara State Government is taking a bold step ahead by extending its School Coding and Digital Literacy Program into the second term holiday period. The Holiday Edition is now underway in selected secondary schools across the state. It continues the momentum of a transformative initiative launched earlier in February 2025.
Initially introduced in 50 public schools, the program is designed to equip students with essential digital skills, preparing them to thrive in an increasingly tech-driven world. With a clear focus on innovation and empowerment, the Kwara Coding and Digital Literacy Program – Holiday Edition is shaping the next generation of creators, problem-solvers, and tech leaders.
The future is digital—and it starts now.
Tailored for students and teenagers aged 12 to 15, the Holiday Edition builds on the successes of the 2024/2025 second academic term rollout. It offers a dynamic, hands-on learning experience that sparks curiosity and fosters creativity through coding, digital literacy, innovation thinking, and problem-solving—all in a fun and engaging environment.
This impactful initiative is proudly championed by the Kwara State Government under the visionary leadership of His Excellency, Mallam AbdulRahman AbdulRazaq. The program reflects the Governor’s unwavering commitment to investing in technology and innovation as tools for youth empowerment and socio-economic development.
Targeting 7,500 students across all 16 Local Government Areas of the state, the Holiday Edition introduces young learners to the exciting world of tech. Participants will explore how technology shapes their daily lives, gain practical experience with digital tools, and develop basic projects from scratch—ranging from websites and simple programs to digital art and storytelling.
Led by experienced instructors and mentors, the program ensures that every student—regardless of background or prior experience—feels welcome, empowered, and inspired to explore the possibilities of the digital age.
Through initiatives like this, Kwara State is positioning itself as a forward-thinking hub of innovation, where young minds are nurtured to become active contributors to the digital economy of tomorrow.
