SeeBeyondBorders
(UK, 1146044) Browse events
YTD Raised: £3,090.00SeeBeyondBorders is a not-for-profit organisation that provides Cambodian children with access to quality teaching and learning at school. We are committed to sustainably improving education standards in Cambodia and promote local participation, management, responsibility and ownership across all of our programmes. We train teachers, develop school infrastructure and support local families educating their children in Cambodia - a country that has been ravaged by war, genocide, repression and starvation. Cambodia is a country of immense beauty and warm people, but the pain of its recent history lies not far beneath the surface. The legacy of the Khmer Rouge remains a constant factor in the day-to-day lives of everyday Cambodians, with its impact clearly felt in the education system. Cambodia also continues to struggle to meet its population’s basic needs. Faced with extreme poverty, nearly half the children living outside the main cities do not complete primary school. We work to enable more children to complete their basic education and progress from primary to lower secondary school, through both better quality and access to education. SeeBeyondBorders delivers three integrated programmes that have been developed out of recognition that the challenges to Cambodia’s education system are multi-dimensional, and solutions will require a holistic intervention approach. Our programmes are: 1. Teach The Teacher 2. Getting To School 3. Better Schools Our primary focus is in the rural areas of Battambang and Siem Reap provinces. In each case, our Teach the Teacher programme forms the lead initiative and is supported by our Better Schools and Getting to School programmes according to individual School Development Plans and community needs. Presently we work in over 65 schools with approximately 360 teachers in our programme who teach and educate more than 12,200 children.
