Tanzania's Education Minister Adolf Mkenda is pushing schools to get students hooked on science and tech before the country gets left in the dust. He told primary school administrators that the curriculum redesign aims to prep kids for AI, cybersecurity, robotics, and drone work, warning that nations skipping investment in these fields will fall behind. The government already covers full university costs for A-level science standouts, and 50 top students just started training at the Nelson Mandela African Institution of Science and Technology in Arusha before heading overseas on government scholarships.

Mkenda pointed out that automation will kill some jobs but create massive openings Tanzania needs to grab, or else they will end up relying on foreign experts. He also dragged the English teaching system, saying it is broken if kids cannot hold conversations after seven years of classes. Schools are getting ready for a double cohort hitting in 2028 under the updated education policy.
