Pan-African independent school network Nova Pioneer has partnered with Strathmore University to develop an AI curriculum for K-12 students in Africa, focusing on grades 7-12. The pilot program, part of Nova Pioneer’s Innovation and Leadership Programme, will launch in 2025 for Grade 8 students.

The initiative, announced on August 2, aims to equip African youth with essential AI skills. Over the next five years, the partnership will also create AI Impact Camps and an African Innovation Fund to support students in bringing their ideas to life.
