Teacher Plus Foundation funds teachers, equipment, facilities and teacher training programmes. The Foundation started its programme in Thailand's northeast, where the need is greatest, but is now expanding to other parts of the country.
The objectives of Teacher Plus Foundation are to:
- Support the professional development of non-urban teachers
- Promote teaching and learning methods which develop the thinking and analytical skills of non-urban students
- Give non-urban students educational opportunities equal to urban students
- Encourage schools to provide training for students in areas such as agriculture, health services and environmental science in order to help develop local communities
- Emphasise ethical issues so that students will become responsible adults in society.
