Information and Communication Technology (ICT) plays a vital role in strengthening teaching– learning processes in school education by transforming traditional instructional practices into more interactive, flexible, and learner-centered approaches. The integration of ICT in classrooms enhances access to diverse learning resources, supports innovative pedagogical strategies, and facilitates effective communication between teachers and students. Digital content, collaborative platforms and data-driven assessment tools contribute significantly to improving student engagement, motivation, and learning outcomes. From a constructivist and socio-constructivist perspective, ICT encourages active learning, critical thinking, and collaboration while enabling differentiated instruction and inclusive educational practices that address varied learner needs. At the same time, effective use of ICT depends on several enabling conditions, including adequate infrastructure, reliable access to digital resources, curriculum alignment, and teachers’ professional competence. Persistent challenges such as limited technological facilities, insufficient training opportunities, and disparities in access continue to restrict the full realization of ICT’s educational potential, particularly in public school systems. When supported by appropriate policies, continuous professional development, and sound pedagogical frameworks, ICT becomes a strategic tool for enhancing instructional quality and enriching students’ overall learning experiences. Thus, meaningful and systematic integration of ICT is essential for achieving sustainable improvement in school-level teaching and learning.
