Honourable Commendation for the Wenhui Award
for Educational Innovation in 2017

SeeBeyondBorders’ Teach the Teacher program received an honourable commendation for the Wenhui Award for Educational Innovation, 2017. The program, based on the Scaffolding Capability and Learning Experiences (SCALE) approach, was in line with the theme of the 2017 Wenhui Award, Innovations in the professional development of teachers. Implemented in close collaboration with the District Offices of Education and school principals, the program provides a scaffolded approach that is unique in Cambodia, coordinating teachers’ professional development and embedding them into the district plans.
