Huawei Kenya Holds Workshop Advancing Digital Learning in Schools


Huawei Kenya, in partnership with Hiperdist, KCB Bank Group, and DigiOn – AI Automation, Digital Marketing & Creative Agency hosted a Smart Classroom Workshop in Nairobi, bringing together representatives from 20 Muslim schools across the country. The workshop showcased the Huawei Smart Classroom Solution, a digital platform designed to enhance interactivity, accessibility, and learning outcomes for students, particularly in underserved communities. Attendees experienced hands-on demonstrations and engaged in discussions on how digital learning tools can be effectively integrated into their institutions.

A milestone announcement came from Steadfast Academy, which confirmed it will implement the Smart Classroom Solution and serve as a reference school for others considering adoption. This move underscores the transformative potential of technology in education and highlights how schools can lead by example in driving digital adoption. Huawei emphasized that the Smart Classroom initiative is not only about digitizing learning but also about democratizing access, ensuring all students can benefit from world-class educational environments.

The initiative is strongly supported by the KCB Foundation, with leaders reaffirming the importance of preparing learners for the digital economy. By providing tools and skills to both teachers and students, the partnership seeks to build sustainable foundations for the future workforce. This commitment aligns with Huawei’s ongoing DigiSchool Connectivity Project, which has already connected 21 schools, including special needs institutions, to high-speed internet, positively impacting more than 10,000 learners. Early results from the project show that access to internet-enabled learning has significantly improved students’ ability to grasp complex concepts.

Aligned with Kenya’s Digital Superhighway Agenda and the United Nations Sustainable Development Goals, Huawei’s Smart Classroom initiative demonstrates how partnerships between technology providers, financial institutions, and schools can bridge the digital divide. By improving access, boosting teaching quality, and ensuring equitable learning opportunities, the project is shaping the future of education in Kenya and positioning technology as a powerful tool for inclusion and empowerment.
