When teachers have the skills, resources and backing they need, children are better able to learn, be creative and progress. Equally, when parents believe in the value of education, attendance improves and attitudes shift. The Nepal Education Foundation is a UK-based education charity supporting primary education in remote and underserved communities in Nepal through our long-term, practical BUILD, EQUIP, TEACH approach. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/6267f058c6a89c468e20fb1c/0a9a8be8-36f7-4dd6-a2bc-191ed145d55b/New+School+Library+and+Equipment.JPEG Home - Practical Infrastructure That Supports Learning Government primary schools in remote Himalayan settings face practical challenges, including access to safe buildings, clean water and sanitation. The Nepal Education Foundation supports small, targeted infrastructure projects such as classrooms, water pipes and toilets, working with communities to improve essential facilities. These interventions create safe, functional environments where children can attend school regularly and learn with dignity. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/6267f058c6a89c468e20fb1c/59784e8a-2190-4455-8c94-087f92932719/New+Library+In+Remote+School.JPEG Home - Structured Resources That Build Literacy and Confidence Schools often lack basic learning materials, libraries and educational resources. Many children speak Tamang or Sherpa languages at home, while the national curriculum is taught in Nepali, creating additional barriers to learning. The nef equips schools with libraries and learning resources that are structured by age and ability, aligned to the national curriculum, and designed to support literacy progression. This helps children engage with reading, build confidence, and progress at their own pace. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/6267f058c6a89c468e20fb1c/fb26d4c4-47fb-4ec6-9ff4-678d5327a7a8/Practical+Teacher+Training+in+Rural+Nepal.jpg Home - Training and Coaching That Strengthen Classroom Practice High-quality teacher training and in-school support are critical, yet access is limited in remote areas. The nef provides culturally sensitive teacher training alongside in-school coaching, helping teachers build confidence, skills and consistency in the classroom. When teachers feel supported, learning outcomes improve. We work with schools over the long term, and the results are clear. Since 2018, girls’ enrolment has increased significantly, reception class attendance has risen from 50% to 85% across the schools we support, and over time the vast majority of pupils now progress to secondary education, compared with fewer than half in 2015. https://www.nepaleducationfoundation.org/take-action daily 0.75 2025-05-09 https://www.nepaleducationfoundation.org/education-recovery-project daily 0.75 2026-08-29 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/6267f058c6a89c468e20fb1c/a6b47dfb-d427-4838-b3f9-b5cdbd49100e/image2.jpeg Education Recovery Project We have been overwhelmed by your support and generosity over the last few weeks. Here are some updates on our work. In Nepal, we have provided financial support to two key partners who are providing community leadership to children and families in affected areas. One of our partners is from Betrawati (the BBC covered this town) and has focused on supporting families from there who are now living in Kathmandu. One family we support was later featured in Nepali news. The family lost their home in the 2015 earthquake, and again in a 2017 landslide. Several family members died or were injured in the floods, and the pictures below show the impact on their home. Although connecting with our partner schools and villages is still almost impossible, we have identified one teacher who needs support. The flood swept away her mother-in-law, husband, son and daughter. The flood almost carried her away, but she reached the riverbank and survived.
