Hello everybody! My name is Alex Chamberlain and I am delighted to be joining you all in Yangon. Prior to joining the British School of Yangon, I have worked across a wide range of international schools from Sri Lanka to Ethiopia, holding various leadership positions in these roles. Ultimately, my passion has always been around teaching and learning – providing students with active, engaging learning opportunities that ignite their interests.
I hold a degree in psychology alongside my PGCE from York. Throughout my career, I have been fortunate to engage in some wonderful CPD opportunities including my NPQSL and Safeguarding Lead training. I will be commencing my PhD in September 2024 part-time, exploring behavioural genetics in education: being a lifelong learner is something that I wish to instil in the children I teach. I have taught across all the primary phase and have co-ordinated a range of core and foundation subjects. More recently, I have enjoyed supporting and developing student teachers and ECTs.
Outside of school, I like to be very active and can often be found hiking up a mountain or running. I am very excited to be joining your school and look forward to contributing to its continued development and successes alongside exploring and embracing the rich Myanmar culture.
What Does the Early Explorers Programme Entail?
Early Explorers is a weekly one-hour session designed for parents and their children aged 0-2 years. Rooted in the British EYFS (Early Years Foundation Stage) framework, the programme provides a nurturing and engaging environment for children to explore, learn, and grow alongside their parents or guardians.
