OUR MISSION
Education for NepALL
Supporting students in the English for NepAll Project
English for NepALL is an education project based in Kathmandu in Nepal offering scholarships to children or young adults who don’t have the resources to learn English.
In Kathmandu, knowledge of English is vital for two of the most important industries in Nepal: IT and tourism. IT is a huge growth area in the region and provides real opportunities for career progression. All trainers are fully qualified, native English speakers so that students are ensured the best possible standard of language learning and they achieve great results!
How our collaboration began…
In 1999, I went to Nepal initially as a VSO volunteer with the British government, working as an Education Advisor on the Basic and Primary Education Programme within the Ministry of Education in Nepal and afterwards as an Education Consultant for UNICEF Nepal. Enabling access to quality primary education to girls and others excluded for different reasons, has always been her mission and she was inspired by the determination of the professionals she worked with, both within and outside of the government, Nepali and international. It’s fair to stay that part of her heart is always in Nepal!
Whilst there, I met Susan Deith who was working at the British Council at the time and we became good friends, sharing a love of Nepal and also a mission for education. Susan has stayed in Nepal and as part of her work, she set up a language school in Kathmandu.
After the 2016 earthquake, myself and Belfort School of English clients supported some relief work that Susan undertook and from there, the idea to support more longterm arose and we started to support through donations at Christmas time and now it is fully integrated into the coaching business.
