History
WES World-wide Education Service grew out of the charity Parents' National Education Union (PNEU) founded in 1887 by Charlotte Mason.
Charlotte was a pioneer in her belief that education should be a partnership between parents, teachers and students. She also believed that education was most effective when based on first hand observations and developed through interactive learning.
CfBT Education Trust acquired WES in June 2006, thus merging our respective expertise in order to expand and develop our joint services world-wide (please visit www.cfbt.com).
CfBT Education Trust is a leading independent provider of education and training services with operations world-wide and regional bases in South-East Asia, the Middle East, Africa, USA and its headquarters in the UK. It is a 'not-for profit' organisation.
As one, we are involved with reforming educational systems, supporting schools and teachers in the UK and world-wide, working with young learners (running schools and nurseries & also providing education for children excluded from school), education research, development projects and a variety of aid projects in the developing world. Projects include HIV-Aids education and prevention (Kenya & Namibia); National curriculum reform (Qatar & Armenia); English language policy and practice (Brunei Darussalam, Oman and Malaysia) and Public-Private partnership (India-working with emerging schools & HSBC).
Current clients include:
- Governments of Abu Dhabi, Oman, Brunei Darussalam and Malaysia
- British government agencies including the Department for Education and Skills, the National College for School Leadership and Department for International Development
- International donors such as the World Bank, Danida and the European Union
