Vision: At The Teacher Development Support Organisation, we firmly believe that every child has the fundamental right to a trained teacher. We understand that no child should be forced to beg or work, and they should be entitled to enjoy their childhood – to learn, play, make friends, and grow in a safe and happy environment.

With this core belief at the heart of our mission, we are dedicated to ensuring that all children, regardless of their circumstances or location, have access to well-trained and qualified teachers. We believe that a trained teacher can make an immense difference in a child’s life, providing them with the guidance, knowledge, and support they need to thrive academically and emotionally.

Aligned with the United Nations’ sustainable development goals, we are committed to primarily contributing to the goal of quality education. Our mission is to ensure inclusive and equitable quality education and promote lifelong learning opportunities for all children. By focusing on the importance of a trained teaching workforce, we aim to empower teachers with the necessary skills and expertise to create nurturing and impactful learning environments.

Furthermore, we recognize the significance of multilingual education as a crucial lever in providing learners with access to high-quality educational opportunities. By embracing multilingual education, we equip teachers with the tools to cater to diverse learners and foster cross-cultural understanding and communication.

Through our dedication to nurturing well-trained teachers and advocating for quality education, we envision a world where every child’s right to a trained teacher is realized, and they are provided with the education and support they deserve to reach their full potential. Together, we can transform the lives of children, shaping a brighter and more promising future for generations to come.

Mission: At our teacher training and learning centre in Siem Reap, Cambodia, we are dedicated to empowering educators and fostering the holistic development of children and adolescents. Our mission operates on two fronts: teacher training and a student learning centre.

Our teacher training programs focus on equipping educators with the skills and knowledge they need to excel. We provide high-quality professional development, training in innovative teaching methods and effective classroom management, as well as workshops and mentoring to foster continuous learning. Our goal is to create skilled, compassionate educators who deeply understand child development and are committed to lifelong learning themselves, inspiring a culture of continuous improvement in the education sector.

Our learning centre provides a nurturing environment for children and adolescents. We offer language classes and create a safe, inclusive space for exploration and growth. We emphasise opportunities for critical thinking and creativity, always tailoring our approach to meet individual learning needs. This centre also serves as a practical training ground, allowing new and early-career teachers to observe and practice their skills.

Throughout al our work, we prioritise a learner-centred approach to education. We believe in collaborating closely with parents and the community to create a supportive ecosystem for learning. Our focus is on holistic development, nurturing not just the intellectual growth of our students but also their social, emotional, and physical well-being.

Our goal is to create a future where all educators can provide transformative learning experiences and every child has access to a well-trained teacher, enabling them to reach their full potential. This aspiration drives everything we do at our teacher training and learning centres in Siem Reap. At the core of our mission is the fundamental belief that every child has the right to a trained teacher. Through our dedicated efforts in teacher training and student education, we strive to make this belief a reality, not just in Siem Reap, but as a model that can inspire change across Cambodia and beyond.
