Happily Ever Smarter: Resources, lessons plans, fundraising

Pupils are being urged to take part in Happily Ever Smarter, a new campaign to help make going to school a reality for thousands of children living in some of the world’s poorest and most marginalised communities.

The campaign has been launched by education charity United World Schools (UWS) and is offering free educational resources, lesson plans and a fundraising kit for schools.

To inspire students in class or assembly, Happily Ever Smarter has produced a short film, due to go live on Thursday, April 29, to tell the story of Kanchi.

Aged 10, Kanchi lives high in the Himalayan mountains in Nepal, working all day in the fields with her grandmother, and she dreams of going to school.

As the film turns from animation to live action footage, we see Kanchi’s dreams turn into reality, as a school is built in her remote village. Kanchi sets off for her first day of school and a chance to transform her future.
