Following the landmark success of the 2025 Edition, the Kwara State Government has officially announced the commencement of the 2026 Kwara Coding and Digital Literacy Programme.
This session builds on the momentum of the 2025 session, which received widespread acceptance after culminating in the Kwara Futures Exhibition. The exhibition highlighted the outstanding innovation and technical proficiency of Kwara’s youth, proving the effectiveness of the state’s investment in digital education.
To ensure a seamless transition into the 2026 curriculum, the state has provided clear directives for participating institutions based on their current progress:
*Continuing Sessions:* Schools that launched their programmes in 2025 are directed to begin with a comprehensive revision of their assigned tracks, focusing on either Coding or Digital Literacy to solidify foundational knowledge.
*New Enrollments:* Schools that have not yet introduced these subjects are mandated to begin with the Digital Literacy curriculum immediately to ensure all students gain essential 21st-century skills.
The comprehensive 2026 curriculum encompasses high-demand technical and soft skills, including Web Development, Artificial Intelligence (AI), Python Programming, Innovative Thinking, Project Building, and Mentorship. These courses are designed to provide a holistic learning experience that prepares students for the complexities of the modern tech landscape.
The 2026 rollout comes with the full approval and support of His Excellency, Mallam AbdulRahman AbdulRazaq CON, who has ensured that every necessary provision is in place for the programme’s success.
This initiative remains a cornerstone of the administration’s vision to transform Kwara State into a leading digital hub by equipping the next generation with competitive global skills.
School representatives and administrators are encouraged to align with these guidelines to maintain the high standards of excellence established during the previous session.
