Learning online can be just as personal, engaging and socially connected as learning in a classroom, with Microsoft Teams, which is designed to help educators and students stay connected and engaged.

With schools locked down due to COVID-19, the Ministry of Education came up with initiatives to ensure that learning never stops, and in light of the existing collaboration between the Ministry and Microsoft, the Ministry announced the use of Microsoft Teams for Education, as one of the measures for upper secondary grades 10 to 13 (students aged between 14 to 18).

Microsoft and The Cloud Factory assisted the Ministry in this initiative and helped school leaders & educators make the most of the capabilities of Microsoft Teams.
