Batelco Powers Digital Transformation in Bahrain's Education Sector
In a major move to modernise Bahrain's education system, Batelco has rolled out a nationwide digital infrastructure initiative, connecting schools and the education sector across the Kingdom with high-speed, secure internet and advanced technologies.
Aligned with Bahrain Vision 2030, the project aims to modernise classrooms, empower educators, and prepare students for a technology-driven future.
Batelco provides schools with reliable internet, cloud-based tools, and smart campus technologies to support a future-ready education system. This includes interactive digital screens, smart surveillance, and secure access control, transforming schools into integrated smart campuses that enhance both teaching effectiveness and campus safety.
Communication and collaboration have improved through Batelco's high-speed MPLS network, backed by DIA and Managed Wi-Fi, providing schools with secure, reliable, and consistent connectivity across the Kingdom.
These foundational technologies support a wide range of digital services, including Cloud PABX and video conferencing solutions, which enable teachers, students, and administrators to stay connected whether inside the classroom or working remotely.
This level of connectivity extends far beyond convenience. It plays a vital role in building a more inclusive, flexible, and resilient education system, capable of adapting to future learning needs and technological advancements.
With the rise of digital learning comes the need for robust data protection. Batelco addresses this by offering secure cloud storage and local data hosting, ensuring compliance with Bahrain's data residency laws while protecting sensitive educational information.
In addition, Batelco's cybersecurity solutions include Managed Security Services and awareness training programmes designed specifically for schools. These help both educators and students navigate the digital world safely and responsibly.
This initiative represents a strategic investment in Bahrain's educational future. By providing cutting-edge digital infrastructure, Batelco is paving the way for a smarter, more connected generation of learners, fostering innovation, creativity, and seamless digital access in classrooms across the Kingdom.
