How we transformed our practices

University of Birmingham and YTL foundation present: How we transformed our practices, reflections from Alumni educators. 

The Teachers for Educational Equity (TEE) project seeks to make a transformational contribution to educational equity in Malaysia by developing an innovative infrastructure for the effective training and development of teachers working with underserved and displaced communities.  

The programme will be designed and delivered by University of Birmingham in consultation with schools and local partners who currently act as an informal advisory group (and includes, but is not limited to, Arus Academy, HumanKind, Ideas Academy, Teach for Malaysia, UNHCR, Yayasan Chow Kit, Yayasan Geutanyoe). An important feature of the programme is that it will include sessions led by graduates of the programme who may be working in schools and/or continuing to study for a full MA Education.
