She revealed that the donated laptops include 15 new laptops worth approximately N$150 000 and 13 refurbished laptops that were in excellent condition.<\/p>\n<p>Nghikembua said that the recipient schools are located in the Kavango East, Kavango West, \/\/Kharas, Kunene, Hardap, Erongo and Omaheke regions. These schools include Kaitsi !Gubeb Combined School, Otjiperongo Junior Primary School, W.J.D Cloete Junior Secondary School, Kangongo Primary School, Kandjimi Murangi Secondary School, Welwitchia Junior School, Vergenoeg Primary School and Okomakwiya Primary School.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cWe wish to encourage other corporates that have used laptops, desktops and other IT equipment (to donate) for similar causes so that all Namibian schools have ICT products and services at their disposal,\u201d Nghikembua added.<\/p>\n<p>CRAN\u2019s CEO said that the recipient schools were identified with the assistance of the Ministry of Education, Arts and Culture.<\/p>\n<p>The Minister of Education, Arts and Culture, Anna Nghipondoka, said that the government, through its Fifth National Development Plan (NDP5), intends to develop and maintain the education infrastructure by introducing a comprehensive integrated e-learning programme for all schools. CRAN\u2019s donation, she added, will assist learners by giving them access to equitable, inclusive quality education to ensure that they can pursue higher education.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cCRAN is donating 28 laptops to empower teachers and learners through access to information and communication technology. Our ministry is truly grateful as these tools will assist in ensuring that our learners and teachers gain critical ICT skills and have access to valuable information through ICT services.
