In country transport

Battambang

Program Director Brian Allen Program Director Brian Allen Brian is a retired Primary School Principal currently working as an educational consultant providing mentoring and coaching to experienced, new and aspiring principals. Brian also conducts workshops for school leadership teams in the areas of effective teams and communication. About Battambang Battambang is the second largest city in Cambodia and is situated 295 kms north from Phnom Penh. The province borders Thailand and the road to Battambang is the main route through to Thailand. It is a city of approx 90,000. The program operates at the Regional Teacher Training Centre in conjunction with the Provincial Office of Education. The teachers and directors who attend come from all over the province, rural and city schools. The Teachers Across Borders (TAB) program provides the Khmer teachers with a rare opportunity to share teaching techniques with their own colleagues and teachers from Australia, US and UK. Through meaningful cultural experiences and friendships that go well beyond the two-weeks in the classroom, many of the workshop presenters are returning for their third and fourth programs in 2011.
