 Special features :
 Teacher’s Training :
QEF has so far imparted training in Pedagogy to about 800 teachers of about 50 schools during
the last 12 years. QEF schools at the district headquarters act as resource centers for the
training of teachers of the Quality Schools at the Upazila/village level.
 Mission Statement :
QEF promotes a mission statement: “Quality teacher is the backbone of quality education.”
 Academic Programmes :
The strategy of QEF is to make available quality education outside Dhaka city at an affordable
cost by providing the opportunities of comparatively lower admission/tuition fees and trained
teachers. So that children from low-income families can have access to better education. QEF
schools follow the curricula of the National Curriculum and Text Book Board (NCTB) from
Standard I to X in both Bengali medium and English version. The courses of Pre-school (From
Play Group to K.G) are however, based on ‘O’ level curriculum in English medium.
 Source of Finance :
QEF received an initial allocation of Tk. 100m from the Government of the Peoples Republic of
Bangladesh in 2006 as Endowment Fund. Much more funds need to be allocated to extend the
program to more Upzilas and Districts.
QEF expects active support of the development partners in its mission to promote quality
education in Bangladesh. QEF also expects donations/contribution from the private sector and
philanthropists to its programmee for the holistic development of human beings.
 Creating Change Makers :
Education aims at the fullest development of human mind, body and soul. Based on this
philosophy, QEF aims at creating a set of self-motivated and dedicated citizens who will play a
leading role as change makers of Bangladesh society for years to come.
