TEKKATHO FOUNDATION: AT A GLANCE

WHAT WE DO

The Foundation uses digital technologies to support educational change across Myanmar. We build and deliver free, self-contained digital libraries of educational resources that the current generation of students and school children can use right away.

Our Tekkatho MyLibraries are designed for teachers and learners in Myanmar and work even in places with no internet or phone signal. Each MyLibrary capsule is packed with thousands of exciting educational resources, the best of the web adapted for offline environments. These include the Myanmar national curriculum materials as well as complete teacher training courses, video lessons, interactive games, and practical vocational training resources on agriculture, entrepreneurship, construction, healthcare, workplace and digital skills.

Our mission is to advance the education, particularly but not exclusively, of the people of Myanmar (Burma), including by:

Our local hosting model means that people can dependably access the eTekkatho library content at high speed from within the school or library building even when connectivity is poor. In this way, we provide young people with fast and easy access to a wealth of learning opportunities in schools, colleges, community libraries and refugee camps across Myanmar.

Today's students, who will play such a key role in the economic, social and political future of Myanmar, often struggle to gain a relevant education in informal schools and community education initiatives that lack the tools they need to deliver a strong learning environment. Our projects deliver quick, effective solutions to this problem.

We believe that improved access to resources in education will transform minds and opportunities, powering society and enabling more fulfilling lives. We aim to strengthen education across the whole country so young people can benefit from the opportunities digital technologies bring wherever they study and whatever the political future may hold.

TRUSTEES REPORT: IMPACT & ACTIVITIES

For the year ended 30 September 2024

RESILIENT LEARNING, THRIVING HOPE

In September 2023, we launched two new initiatives. The first, Ready to Learn , funded by the Sir Halley Stewart Trust, builds on our 2021 pilot project in Chin State. It expands the original learning centre in Cikha and adds a new hub in Putao, Kachin State. The second initiative, Raise a Hand , supported by Monde par la Main, is bringing new eLibraries to two off-grid communities in rural Kachin.

READY TO LEARN

Our 2021 pilot established a learning hub in Cikha, Chin State. In 2023, the Ready to Learn project expanded significantly: the Cikha hub now has five paid staff, and a new learning hub has opened in Putao, in partnership with the Yawng Zin (Rainbow) Centre, a YMCA-affiliated organisation supporting young adults after the collapse of the university system following the 2021 coup. Yawng Zin serves around 300 students, along with learners from nearby non-formal schools (set up in the wake of widespread closures of state schools).

In Putao, our team has also launched a mobile classroom service, taking the portable, rugged eTekkatho MyLibrary into remote villages. Over the past year, alongside regular activities at Yawng Zin, the team visited 18 educational centres in churches and community spaces across 19 different communities. In total, 893 people, aged between 6 and 75, have accessed learning through the Ready to Learn MyLibrary service.

In Cikha, what was once a relatively peaceful town has now been drawn into Myanmar’s escalating conflict, and the government schools shut down. In response, the Cikha Ready to Learn hub has transformed into a fully-fledged primary school, the RPUF Academy, now affectionately known by parents as the Bless Center. With no other schools operating, the local community stepped in to help build an additional classroom, a toilet block, and even a small playground. The school provides a fulltime education to around 50 early-grade students.

Educatonal atainment: a measurable increase

Prior to the government school closures, the key goal of Ready to Learn was to see if making educational resources more easily available would measurably increase learning outcomes even in a post-coup environment. We looked at the Year 10 Standard exam (now known as the Matriculation Examination) pass rates in Cikha to measure this. In Myanmar, these first and only national exams are taken in the final year of school when students are aged 16-17 years old.

The Matriculation Examinations are very high stakes, determining whether students stay in education and their future employment. Our project partners in Myanmar, the Rural People Upliftment Foundation wrote, “Tenth board exam is none other than an ‘exercise of elimination’ of people from pursuing higher education and other career opportunities in life. It is a clear message of indirectly telling the students that what they have learnt so far is enough. It is an indirect instruction to stay out of schools/education for the rest of their life…. the exam is one of the deciding tests in one’s lifetime”

In previous years, the Matriculation Examination pass rate in Cikha has been dismal, at 0%, 8% and 5%. We have been measuring the pass rate since the Ready to Learn library was built in 2021 (exams were cancelled in the school year 2020-21 due to Covid). In the first year of the project, the pass rate jumped to 30% , then 84% in 2023 and then an astonishing 92% in 2024 , exceeding the national average. These remarkable results demonstrate the transformative impact of making learning resources accessible and providing targeted training, even in the most challenging of circumstances.

Where there is no doctor

In Myanmar, many rural communities lack basic medical services, which leads to untreated illnesses and high maternal and child mortality rates.

The lack of reliable information and practical guidance makes the situation even harder.

We pack our digital MyLibraries with medical and health resources specifically for locations where there is limited or no access to medical professionals, along with guides covering topics such as sanitation, helping those with disabilities, and care for pregnancy and birth.

First responders from the Lisu Youth Community Rescue Team using MyLibrary in Putao to build their first aid skills.

We also add practical healthcare materials to help communities with limited medical facilities prevent, contain and treat endemic diseases like dengue and tuberculosis. All the resources are adapted for offline delivery through MyLibrary.

RAISE A HAND 🙋

The Raise a Hand project brings much-needed educational access to rural Kachin, a region where digital infrastructure is virtually non-existent and state education has been in collapse since the 2021 military coup. In response, many communities have established their own schools to ensure that learning continues for their children.

Through Raise a Hand , we have set up learning hubs at two of these community-run schools. Each hub is powered by an off-grid, self-contained eTekkatho MyLibrary, offering thousands of digital educational resources for learners of all ages.

The first hub is based at Wai Shawng Education, around three hours outside the state capital, Myitkyina. Originally focused on youth education and life skills training to improve employment prospects, Wai Shawng has since expanded its work to open a new primary school. This school offers free education to children from all faiths and ethnic backgrounds in the region.

The second hub is hosted by the Myusha Jawng community school in Waimaw Township, established by the Waimaw Kachin Baptist Association. This inclusive middle school is part of the Community for the Mother Tongue-Based Multilingual Education programme. The hub supports over 700 students

8

and 84 teachers, many of whom are working with children from displaced families. The project aims to keep younger students in school and engaged with learning despite the deep disruption to everyday life.

In January 2024, due to ongoing conflict and seasonal flooding, the Myusha Jawng school relocated to Long Khin village, where it is now operating inside newly built, homegrown classrooms in an internally displaced persons (IDP) camp.

One teacher told us , “The students enjoyed using the resources because of the opportunity to

learn despite the challenges of temporary life in plastic shelters in the IDP camp.”

Ting Wang, one of the students, added, “It is always a pleasure to be able to discuss in a way that really supports leadership skills.”

TEACHER TRAINING AND VOCATIONAL SKILLS

February 1, 2024, marked the third anniversary of the military coup in Myanmar. Since then, conflict, displacement, and economic hardship have severely disrupted education across the country. With the state school system in crisis and a generation of children at risk of losing their education, community-led learning centres are emerging in every region.

We are working with the Ningshawng Social Institute (NSi), a non-state vocational training college in Kachin, to help meet the urgent need for teachers in these informal education initiatives, spanning refugee camps, community centres, and monastic schools.

In the reporting year, 128 trainees completed NSi’s 8-month Diploma in Teacher Education programme in Palana. These aspiring teachers are already working in primary, secondary, and high schools across Kachin, including Myitkyina, Laiza, Mai Ja Yang, Bhamo, Putao, Hpakan, Danai, Waimaw, and Sadung.

The Tekkatho Foundation supports this programme by providing access to the eTekkatho MyLibrary and leading weekly teacher training sessions. This work forms part of our broader commitment to strengthening non-government adult education in Myanmar’s border regions.

FINANCIAL REPORT: NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

For the year ended 30 September 2024

1. ACCOUNTING POLICIES

The principal accounting policies adopted, judgments and key sources of estimation uncertainty in the preparation of the financial statements are as follows:

BASIS OF PREPARATION

The financial statements have been prepared in accordance with Accounting and Reporting by Charities: Statement of Recommended Practice applicable to charities preparing their accounts in accordance with the Financial Reporting Standard applicable in the UK and Republic of Ireland (FRS 102), second edition - October 2019 (Charities SORP (FRS 102)), the Financial Reporting Standard applicable in the UK and Republic of Ireland (FRS 102) and the Companies Act 2006 and UK Generally Accepted Accounting Practice.

Tekkatho Foundation meets the definition of a public benefit entity under FRS102. Assets and liabilities are initially recognised at historical cost or transaction value unless otherwise stated in the relevant accounting policy note.

PREPARATION OF THE ACCOUNTS ON A GOING CONCERN BASIS

The trustees consider that there are no material uncertainties about the charitable company's ability to continue as a going concern. The trustees have made no key judgments which have a significant effect on the accounts.

The trustees do not consider that there are any sources of estimation uncertainty at the reporting date that have a significant risk of causing a material adjustment to the carrying amount of assets and liabilities within the next reporting period.

RESERVES

The charity aims to hold 3-months of operational expenditure in reserve. We consider reserves to be that part of our income funds that are freely available for operating purposes not subject to commitments, planned expenditure and spending limits. We do not include endowment funds, restricted funds or designated funds in our reserves.

18

INCOME

Income is recognised when the charity has entitlement to the funds, any performance conditions attached to the item(s) of income have been met, it is probable that the income will be received and the amount can be measured reliably.

Income from government and other grants, whether ‘capital’ grants or ‘revenue’ grants, is recognised when the charity has entitlement to the funds, any performance conditions attached to the grants have been met, it is probable that the income will be received and the amount can be measured reliably and is not deferred.

For legacies, entitlement is taken as the earlier of the date on which either: the charity is aware that probate has been granted, the estate has been finalised and notification has been made by the executor(s) to the charity that a distribution will be made, or when a distribution is received from the estate. Receipt of a legacy, in whole or in part, is only considered probable when the amount can be measured reliably and the charity has been notified of the executor’s intention to make a distribution. Where legacies have been notified to the charity, or the charity is aware of the granting of probate, and the criteria for income recognition have not been met, then the legacy is a treated as a contingent asset and disclosed if material. Income received in advance of a provision of a specified service is deferred until the criteria for income recognition are met.

DONATED SERVICES AND FACILITIES

Donated professional services and donated facilities are recognised as income when the charity has control over the item, any conditions associated with the donated item have been met, the receipt of economic benefit from the use by the charity of the item is probable and that economic benefit can be measured reliably. In accordance with the Charities SORP (FRS 102), general volunteer time is not recognised; refer to the trustees’ annual report for more information about their contribution.

On receipt, donated professional services and donated facilities are recognised on the basis of the value of the gift to the charity which is the amount the charity would have been willing to pay to obtain services or facilities of equivalent economic benefit on the open market; a corresponding amount is then recognised in expenditure in the period of receipt.

19

INTEREST RECEIVABLE

Interest on funds held on deposit is included when receivable and the amount can be measured reliably by the charity; this is normally upon notification of the interest paid or payable by the Bank.

FUND ACCOUNTING

Unrestricted funds are available to spend on activities that further any of the purposes of charity. Designated funds are unrestricted funds of the charity which the trustees have decided at their discretion to set aside to use for a specific purpose. Restricted funds are donations which the donor has specified are to be solely used for particular areas of the charity’s work or for specific projects being undertaken by the charity.

EXPENDITURE AND IRRECOVERABLE VAT

Expenditure is recognised once there is a legal or constructive obligation to make a payment to a third party, it is probable that settlement will be required and the amount of the obligation can be measured reliably. Expenditure is classified under the following activity headings:

Irrecoverable VAT is charged as a cost against the activity for which the expenditure was incurred.

TANGIBLE FIXED ASSETS

Individual fixed assets are capitalised at cost and are depreciated over their estimated useful economic lives.

DEBTORS

Trade and other debtors are recognised at the settlement amount due after any trade discount offered. Prepayments are valued at the amount prepaid net of any trade discounts due.

20

CASH AT BANK AND IN HAND

Cash at bank and cash in hand includes cash and short term highly liquid investments with a short maturity of three months or less from the date of acquisition or opening of the deposit or similar account.

CREDITORS AND PROVISIONS

Creditors and provisions are recognised where the charity has a present obligation resulting from a past event that will probably result in the transfer of funds to a third party and the amount due to settle the obligation can be measured or estimated reliably. Creditors and provisions are normally recognised at their settlement amount after allowing for any trade discounts due.

FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS

The charity only has financial assets and financial liabilities of a kind that qualify as basic financial instruments. Basic financial instruments are initially recognised at transaction value and subsequently measured at their settlement value with the exception of bank loans which are subsequently measured at amortised cost using the effective interest method.

FOREIGN CURRENCIES

Transactions entered into in currencies other than sterling are included in the accounts after conversion at the bank rate in force on the date.

21

2. LEGAL STATUS OF THE CHARITY

The charity is a company limited by guarantee registered in England and Wales and has no share capital. In the event of the charity being wound up, the liability in respect of the guarantee is limited to £1 per member of the charity. The registered office address is disclosed on page 12.
