SeeBeyondBorders Australia

For over 15 years, SeeBeyondBorders Australia has been transforming primary education in Cambodia. Our dedication has impacted hundreds of schools and thousands of lives. Over the past 15 years, we’ve worked with 250 schools, supported over 700 teachers, and improved education outcomes for 30,000 children. A child in a school supported by our programmes is 1.8 times more likely to reach grade-level Minimum Proficiency Levels in literacy than other schools. In 2023, 65% of students from participating schools achieved literacy Minimum Proficiency Levels, compared to only 36% of students in control schools.

In Australia, we are accredited by the Australian Department of Foreign Affairs and Trade for demonstrating capacity and performance against indicators. In Cambodia, the Ministry of Education has recognised our work for its contribution to developing a national mentoring framework, and we are the only organisation in Cambodia to have won the UNESCO Prize for Outstanding Practice and Performance in Enhancing the Effectiveness of Teachers.

Teachers play a vital role in determining the quality of a child’s education, so we focus on building their teaching competencies. We collaborate with the Ministry of Education to enhance the curriculum, equipping it with engaging online resources and innovative teaching methods. We offer educators a comprehensive professional development package, including training and mentorship. This empowers teachers to increase their effectiveness in teaching maths and literacy, integrating educational technology to enhance learning and classroom management. Ultimately, this allows teachers to deliver compelling and interactive lessons that improve student learning outcomes.
