Transform Education Globally with Anchor Schools


Join the movement to revolutionize education through strategic partnerships with Anchor Schools worldwide.

Global Impact Through Anchor Schools

1MT's impact extends far beyond individual teachers. Through partnerships with Anchor Schools worldwide, we embarked on a mission to transform education on a grand scale. These institutions became hubs of innovation, where educators gathered to learn, grow, and inspire one another, recognizing that it truly takes a global community to effect change. The journey began with the vision of 1MT to address the global teacher shortage crisis and improve learning outcomes for students, especially in underserved communities.

The Anchor Schools program, a strategic initiative of 1 Million Teachers (1MT), highlights our dedication to enhancing education through teacher empowerment and innovation. Schools participating in the program are chosen based on their commitment to educational excellence, enrollment in the 1MT program, leadership in education, and the presence of Black Belts within their faculty. As the program gained momentum, it became a beacon of excellence and innovation, with schools receiving special recognition and privileged access to 1MT's extensive resources. Looking ahead, 1MT is committed to expanding this initiative, forging new partnerships, and creating a global network dedicated to empowering teachers and transforming the lives of students around the world.
