Share on FacebookShare on TwitterShare on Linkedin

Following the introduction of virtual learning by the Lagos State Ministry of Education in response to the shutdown of schools due to COVID-19 pandemic, Old Mutual has announced comprehensive material and financial support for the initiative to fast track the adoption of virtual learning especially amongst children from vulnerable communities across the state.

The support comes at an appropriate time when the global pandemic has accelerated the need to adopt virtual learning to enable students to stay on track with their education.

The firm, which is the Nigerian subsidiary of the pan-African insurance firm and global financial services provider, Old Mutual Limited, committed to partnering with the state across the education ecosystem through digital and some traditional means of education, which include support for Math on the Ministry’s digital platform ‘Roducate’ to providing radio sets for more traditional forms of engagement.
