The visit aimed to strengthen academic exchanges and cooperation specifically within the field of education, with a primary focus on initiatives to enrich the faculty’s pedagogical reach. Discussions highlighted opportunities for reciprocal teaching engagements, where faculty members from both institutions are encouraged to participate in joint lecturing. Furthermore, the engagement proposed organised study visits to Singapore to observe teaching practices and to lay foundation for a Memorandum of Understanding (MoU). This strategic dialogue enhances the School of Education’s ongoing work in building meaningful international partnerships and promoting excellence in teacher training and inclusive education.
