The Assistant Minister of Education and Skills Development, Mr Moiseraele Goya, says his ministry is in the process of replacing old computers, in 150 junior secondary schools with Gabane Junior Secondary School amongst them.

Mr Goya said delivery was set to be before the end of January 2016, while internet upgrade would be done before the end of December 2015.

Meanwhile, the assistant minister said he was aware that Gabane Junior Secondary School uses firewood for cooking instead of gas or electric pots. He said they had been in the process of upgrading school cooking facilities, and the kitchen would be completed within the current financial year. 

The MP for Gabane-Mmankgodi MP, Maj. Gen. Pius Mokgware had asked the minister to state when would the computers given to Gabane junior school in 2003 be replaced, as they were now old.  He further wanted to know when would the school internet be upgraded, and why it was using firewood instead of gas.
