The Government is now seeking to bring on board stakeholders who had criticised the manner in which it was rolling out the Standard One laptop project.

The inter-ministerial secretariat formed to oversee the implementation of the project is now reaching out to other players in the education sector including the Kenya National Union of Teachers (Knut) and the school head teachers association.
