NIA (Nevis Island Administration) has rolled out over 1,200 digital devices to students, teachers and schools in a major push to boost digital literacy across the island.

Minister of Education et.al, the Hon. Troy Liburd, said devices have been distributed to all levels of the education system including primary and secondary schools, preschools and teachers.

 Premier the Hon. Mark Brantley described the move as a giant leap forward, part of a wider digital strategy that includes curriculum reform, public education and teacher training.

The initiative is backed by key partners, including the Government of the Republic of China (Taiwan), the Government of St. Kitts and Nevis through a Caribbean Development Bank grant, and the Windsong Foundation.
