Kenya’s ICT Authority is seeking consulting firms to integrate digital literacy into the Competency-Based Curriculum, with artificial intelligence curriculum development expertise among the selection requirements.
The 40-calendar-week assignment will be financed through the World Bank-backed Kenya Digital Economy Acceleration Project and will incorporate gender-inclusive approaches to digital education.
Expressions of interest from eligible firms must be submitted by 28 October 2026. The consultancy forms part of a broader $390 million programme focused on connectivity, digital public services, education and digital skills.
The initiative follows the distribution of 10,382 laptops and an equal number of interactive smartboards for public junior schools, alongside reported technology-integration training for more than 62,000 teachers.
The scope of AI instruction, targeted grade levels, rollout timetable and assessment methods remain to be established as Kenya continues developing its digital education framework.
