Our Education Programme is designed to help overcome barriers to education
Access to quality education is critical in breaking the generational cycle of poverty. When a child enrols at ISF, we commit to supporting them on their years-long education journey to ensure much-needed pathways out of poverty.
Children join ISF Education Programme when they are between 8-11 years old and can receive our support all the way through their second year of University education.
Achieving a more sustainable future for all
We are proud to embed the following United Nations Sustainable Development Goals across our Education Programme to achieve a more sustainable future for all.

What our Education Programme consists of
Catch-up Education
Our holistic Catch-up Education Programme is designed to provide quality education for children aged 8-11 who have been unable to attend school due to poverty. We provide two years of public-school education in one, covering the full national curriculum, plus English, IT and tablet-based .
approach also supports students with two nutritious meals daily, uniforms, stationary, bicycles and weekly sports activities, such as PE, yoga, football and Khmer dance.
Public school support
Upon completing our Catch-up Education Programme, we enrol students into public schools. We provide students with uniforms, educational materials, school meals, healthcare, employability skills training, as well as family and wider community support.
Our holistic support is available for as long as our students remain in school to give them the best possible chance of completing their education.
ITC Classes
We provide basics of both Khmer and English typing, as well as how to use Microsoft Word, Excel, and Powerpoint. For older students, we offer more specialised classes in Photoshop and coding. The enthusiasm for these classes is evident especially among our catch-up students, with an average attendance rate of over 90%.
English Classes
At ISF, we understand the importance of English in today’s world and the need for our students to have the necessary skills to access higher education and gainful employment. That is why we offer English classes to all our students using creative and fun approaches such as tablet-based activities, singing songs, project-based learning and contests.

Our home is in an old graveyard. When I was 8, I had to stop going to school, because I had to stay home and help my mother. I was so sad in my heart.
