TEACHERS TRAINING

To strengthen and develop the skills of specialist teachers in Krousar Thmey schools and train teachers of the public education system for special needs pupils.

Objective

To strengthen and develop the skills of specialized teachers in Krousar Thmey’s schools. To train teachers of the public education system for special needs pupils.

The Project

Over the last 25 years, Krousar Thmey has developed a unique expertise in Cambodia regarding education for children with visual or hearing disabilities. Attentive to the quality of the education offered, the foundation has always set up training sessions to enable teachers to perfect their skills. The certification of the first class of specialized teachers of the country, trained on the basis of 3 curricula developed by Krousar Thmey with the support of UNICEF, took place between December 2018 and October 2019. 18 teachers successfully passed the training, among 10 specialized teachers for hard-of-hearing or deaf students and 8 specialized teachers for visually-impaired or blind students. The second class of specialized teachers started in January 2020 with the attendance of 20 teachers. Teacher training is now under the responsibility of the National Institute of Special Education (NISE). At the same time, Krousar Thmey is working with the Institute to reinforce the capacity of in-service teacher trainers and teachers.
