Strategic Leadersip for ICT Workshop

A three day workshop organized by the British Council was given to 20 principals from the private and the public sectors in WBCC. The purpose of the workshop was to provide school principals with informed professional judgement, and to equip them with the skills, knowledge, and understanding needed to implement an ICT vision. What we targeted was that principals write and afterwards implement a strategic plan that aknowledges the undeniable potential that technology has to enhance and extend learning and assist in administration, hoping that they have a positive attitude towards managing change.
