Mr.
Felix, HOD Computer
Department, sees a very
bright future for students
undertaking Information
Technology as a career. All
the teachers from primary to
high school are computer
literate and the department
is also responsible for
continuous professional
development of the teachers
to keep them abreast with
changing technology. After
all we at JPI believe in the
street township street
