As part of the 2024 Back to School Campaign, the Deputy Minister of Communications and Digital Technologies, Honourable. Philly Mapulane and the Limpopo MEC of Education Ms Mavhungu Lerule-Ramakhanya will officially open a cyberlab at Manoe Secondary School in Blouberg local Municipality, Capricorn North District in Limpopo Province.

The national cyberlab programme is an initiative of the State Information Technology Agency (SITA); and is aimed at investing in the creation and expansion of smart schools. This is also aligned to DCDT’s vision of SITA reasserting itself as the leader in driving ICT transformation in government.

The lab is envisioned to enhance the learner’s academic development and teacher’s learning materials through the internet connectivity that is provided in conjunction with the cyberlab infrastructure.

In the 2023 Grade 12 results, Limpopo is one of the provinces that have saw significant improvement and with Manoe having obtained 80.4 % in the 2023 Matric results.
