CAN has long supported education and has a strong track record of both building schools and supporting the salaries of teachers. In the last 25 years CAN has supported 17 schools.

​

CAN is keen to promote and support education in rural Nepal but does not interfere with the curriculum or teaching methods. CAN has installed a library in all schools it has/is supporting for the benefits of pupils and wider community.

​

CAN currently supports seven schools in North Gorkha at Chumling, Yarchu, Philim, Gap, ChuleNile, Prok and Lihi by providing the salaries of  a number of teachers. The schools CAN has supported have created safe, warm and dry learning environments for young children, as well as providing food and, in some cases, accommodation. We also provide educational materials and sports equipment.
