To optimize the traditional teaching method, some schools are beginning to utilize the uniqueness of technology to create more quality and interactive classes for their students. Albeit the advantages, access and affordability to the technology may be challenging to some students even some schools itself.

With an unwavering dedication, SNS Network has launched a momentous program on the 10th of June 2023, graced by the esteemed presence of the Minister of Education, YB Fadhlina Sidek.
