The collaboration reflects CitySavings’ ongoing commitment to supporting educators and enhancing the quality of instruction in Philippine schools, particularly in areas like Laguna, where recent training sessions were held.
Through the partnership, CitySavings and Khan Academy Philippines aim to equip teachers with modern digital tools to improve classroom instruction and help them make better use of data in lesson planning and teaching. Recent initiatives focused on 'data-driven teaching with Khanmigo AI', an AI-powered assistant designed to support educators in developing lesson plans, analyzing student data, and tailoring instruction to meet learners’ needs. Hundreds of educators from regions such as Sta. Rosa and Calamba participated in hands-on workshops, gaining practical experience in leveraging AI to enhance student outcomes.

The bank emphasised that teachers are central to transforming classrooms and shaping the next generation, and that equipping them with the latest tools and techniques is essential in meeting the evolving demands of digital-age education.
