National Digital Learning Strategy for the Sierra Leone Ministry of Basic and Senior Secondary Education & Teaching Service Commission 2025–2030

Sierra Leone launches first-ever National Digital Learning Strategy The Ministry of Basic and Senior Secondary Education (MBSSE) and the Teaching Service Commission (TSC) are pleased to announce the launch of Sierra Leone’s first-ever National Digital Learning Strategy (NDLS) — a groundbreaking framework aimed at leveraging educational technology to improve teaching and learning in Sierra Leone. Developed through a collaborative and consultative process with representatives from the MBSSE, TSC, Ministry of Tertiary and Higher Education (MTHE), Presidential Delivery Unit (PDU), and Ministry of Communications, Technology, and Innovation (MoCTI) and shaped by insights from students, teachers, district leaders and officials, the NDLS outlines key priorities related to addressing the digital divide in Sierra Leone; improving teachers’ digital capabilities; strengthening learners’ access to technology; improving access to localized content, and improving coordination mechanisms between all EdTech stakeholders. EdTech Hub is a proud partner of this work alongside the UK Foreign, Commonwealth and Development Office (FCDO), UNICEF, the World Bank, and other collaborators. This collaboration included technical guidance and support throughout the process. The NDLS represents a collective commitment to transforming education and building future-ready learners and educators.
