    The Ultimate Showdown of Coding and Robotics: SA’s Top Schools Revealed

    In a shocking turn of events, the State IT Agency (SITA) has announced the winners of the nationwide SITA Coding and Robotics Challenge, with six primary and secondary schools receiving a combined R2 million in prizes. But the real question is: can these schools handle the heat?

    The challenge was a battle royale of sorts, with 10 primary and secondary schools shortlisted to participate in the final leg of the competition. But only three winners of each category emerged victorious, taking home the coveted prizes.

    The Winners:

    • Primary schools:
      • Mashupye Tladi Primary School, Limpopo – R500 000
      • Kutung Primary School, Gauteng – R300 000
      • Inkonjane Primary School, North West – R200 000
    • Secondary schools:
      • Cosmo City Secondary School, Gauteng – R500 000
      • Ekangala Engineering Secondary School, Gauteng – R300 000
      • JG Meiring Secondary School, Western Cape – R200 000

    But what makes these schools so special? According to SITA, it’s their innovative solutions and forward-thinking approach to coding and robotics. They’re the future leaders, and we’re excited to see what they’ll achieve.

    The Verdict:

    The SITA Coding and Robotics Challenge is more than just a competition – it’s a way to bridge the digital divide and equip young learners with the skills they need to succeed in the digital economy. By providing a platform for students to showcase their talents, SITA is empowering them to develop innovative solutions that can positively impact their lives and contribute to the overall development of our country.
