Our school has come a long way, and that’ s thanks to the Teacher Leadership Program. Without it, we would not have witnessed such transformative changes in our students’ lives. In the village, daily life can feel repetitive, and it’ s often difficult to keep students motivated beyond the classroom. We longed for something more meaningful in our everyday routine.
For years, we relied on traditional ways of teaching and learning. But when our Teacher-Leaders arrived, they introduced fresh ideas- bringing creativity and energy into both the classroom and afterschool activities. At first, it felt unfamiliar, even challenging. But little by little, it became a normal part of our school life.
Today, our students aren’ t just memorizing facts; they are thinking deeply, collaborating with one another, and taking initiative. They are becoming leaders, both in their classrooms and in the community. Their confidence and critical thinking are not only helping them grow as individuals, they are strengthening our entire school.
