About Us
Designing Learning That Matters — Together.
When schools want to rethink what’s possible, they call us.
Founded in
Global Experience
Founded by Chung Man Chan, a global education ecosystems designer with experience across 112 countries and 36 cities, Poly Studio brings together deep expertise in curriculum design, teacher training, and educational leadership.
From designing over 1,500 real-world learning projects to leading international educator development, we create frameworks that make learning meaningful, contextual, and enduring.
Rooted in Proven Practice
Poly Studio builds on Chung Man's extensive body of work, which includes:
-
Co-creating and led the award-winning Changemaker Curriculum© for THINK Global School
-
Developed the Trailblazer Curriculum for Dalton School Hong Kong—the city's first bilingual, bi-cultural, place-rooted PBL curriculum
-
Leading educator training with government agency like the Great Barrier Reef Marine Park Authority and institutions such as the Autonomous University of Bucaramanga, Colombia, and
the American International School–Riyadh -
Over 15 years of teaching experience in international schools.
-
Deep working knowledge of multiple curricula, including IB, AP, and the Australian Curriculum.
What began as individual milestones has grown into the foundation of Poly Studio’s current work: rooted in place, powered by purpose.
"We design from the intersection of curiosity and empathy, where personal experience meets universal questions, and where every Learning Design Experience becomes a bridge to deeper understanding."
Our Work is
Grounded in Four Beliefs
Let's Work Together +
Whether you're launching a new curriculum, reimagining faculty development, or planning systemic change—Poly Studio brings expertise, creativity, and grounded implementation.
We work with schools, teachers, educational institutions, NGOs, museums, and global learning organizations around the world to co-create learning ecosystems rooted in local context and powered by curiosity, culture, and community. Poly Studio was born from the belief that learning should live beyond walls. Our story doesn’t begin in a room—it begins in motion: from coral reefs to city streets, refugee camps to rooftop farms. These are the places that have taught us what education can truly be.
Learn Beyond Walls
