Telecommunications giant BCX on Monday launched a new digital learning platform aimed at providing free access to online educational content.
No charge will be levied for the maths and science learning material and content that learners, educators, school administrators and parents can access from the new BCXLearn website.
Those who access the website using Telkom’s network will not pay any data costs.
“Learners will have free access to education services and tools, as well as all the material in the standard national curriculum – from Grade 4 to Grade 12,” said BCX CEO Ian Russell.
BCXLearn will also host supplementary interactive educational material.
“The platform also gives schools the opportunity to create their own websites and tailor-make content to suit their environment – free of charge,” he said.
