Task force for digital transformation in education
View(s):Cabinet has approved the establishment of a task force for digital transformation in the education sector.
The education sector is under severe pressure due to a shortage of more than 42,000 teachers and increasing inequality in rural schools with less facilities.
“Most countries are utilising digital benefits efficiently to create revolutionary differences in their education systems. Although Sri Lanka has also initiated various digital education methods, the expected results cannot be achieved due to disorganisation”, a Cabinet statement read.
Therefore, it has become essential to implement an integrated strategic digital approach that is combined with the present education reforms, it said.
The task force will function under the chairmanship of the Secretary to the Prime Minister comprising the Secretary to the Ministry of Education, Higher Education and Vocational Education, along with the Secretary to the Ministry of Digital Economy, and relevant representatives, to take necessary steps in this regard.
