Education Foundation
Rural Education
PTI has long been caring for rural education and continued to become the driving force in their growth
According to Taiwan's Ministry of Education, rural schools are those located in remote areas with limited transportation access or insufficient digital learning resources. For some children, the journey home after school is a long one. For some schools, educational resources remain beyond easy reach. PTI believes that true social inclusion is not merely about recognizing disparities, but about taking action to bridge them. We strive to ensure that every child has the opportunity to broaden their horizons, develop their potential, and pursue their dreams. By reaching out to rural communities, we support children's growth and help create more possibilities for rural education.
Danan Elementary School
Da Nan Elementary School is a rural elementary school located in Dahu Township, Miaoli County. Due to its remoteness, there are no art classes in the township. In addition, parents are mostly busy with livelihoods, and the next generation generally lacks opportunity to take any art classes.
However, the "Multiple Learning Curriculum Program" allows children in remote areas to learn joyfully, showing confidence and brilliance! Whether its " Reading promotion plan", " Non-toxic small farm project" or " Wednesday multi-learning programs", all have become the courses that children are looking forward to. They can enjoy themselves in the classroom and get close to nature, experiencing the fun of diverse learning!

Qingshui Elementary School
