Phase 1 - a 'Proof of Concept'
The pilot phase of the iSchool project has involved 16 schools, ranging from small community schools, orphanages and large high schools. A report is now available for Phase 1.
The institutions are: 
• Chimwemwe School, Kabanana, Lusaka
• Aisha school, N'gombe, Lusaka
• SOS Children's Village Basic School, Lusaka
• SOS Children's Village Secondary School, Lusaka
• Munali Boys' School, Lusaka
• Munali Girls' School, Lusaka
• Chelstone School, Lusaka
• Kabulonga Girls' School, Lusaka
• Mpelembe Secondary School, Kitwe
• Fatima Girls' School, Ndola
• Chimpembi Girls' School, Chisamba
• Tujatane Tongabezi Trust School, Livingstone
• Zambezi Basic School, Livingstone
• Lubasi Home, Livingstone
• Ebenezer Trust School, Livingstone
• Namwala Secondary School, Namwala
These schools were given an internet connection on a low-cost or free basis, and assisted to set up income generating activities such as internet cafes and community training to add to school funds. They were provided with free training in computer user skills and teachers were taught how to use the internet to increase their knowledge of their given subjects.
An evaluation of Phase 1 was undertaken after 12 months July 2007 to June 2008, and the findings have informed the development of our plans for Phase 2, a roll-out to 100 schools. Please use the 'Contact Us' form to request a copy of the Phase 1 Report.
