The government, in a quest to enhance education delivery through information technology, launched the One Teacher One Laptop programme to highlight the importance of information and communication (ICT)-mediated Teacher Professional Development (TPD).

The Vice-President, Dr Mahamudu Bawumia, launched the initiative in September 2021 under an aggressive programme to strategically influence teaching and learning outcomes in pre-tertiary educational institutions nationwide.

Under the programme, all teachers in the public school from kindergarten to the senior high school are to receive a laptop computer each to aid them in teaching, lesson preparation, research and learning.
