Millions of children lack the education, support, and opportunity they need to thrive.
The obstacles they face—poverty, hunger, discrimination, trauma, and school systems that do not
provide them with the education they need—are overwhelming. And when millions of children aren’t
learning, it affects us all—perpetuating poverty, dividing societies, and weakening economies.
All Children Deserve:
- Services that support healthy development
- Education systems designed to meet diverse needs
- Advocates who challenge the injustices they face
- The tools to navigate—and lead—the world they'll inherit
To change the status quo for children, we need leadership
Meaningful, sustainable change requires leaders who are rooted in their local culture, challenges, and opportunities and who believe in the potential of children and their communities. Teach For All is developing collective leadership to improve education and expand opportunity for all children, so they can shape a better future for themselves and the world around them.

Classroom Impact
Network partners begin cultivating leadership by calling on their countries’ diverse graduates and professionals to commit at least two years to teach in the schools and communities where they’re needed most. Through ongoing training and development, these teachers become strong classroom leaders and determined advocates for their students, who understand the complex challenges facing economically disadvantaged communities and believe that overcoming these obstacles is possible.

In classrooms across the network, teachers are helping their students achieve academic success and develop the skills and mindsets they need to thrive in—and lead—a rapidly changing world.
Grounded in their experience in the classroom, network alumni are becoming leaders who, in partnership with communities and other stakeholders, are taking on the challenges facing marginalized children from inside and outside of the education system.
