SISFU extends its sincere thanks and best wishes to Mr. Pierre Pecson, Head of Education at the British Council, as he embarks on a new role in the United Kingdom.

Through the years, SISFU has been working closely with Mr. Pecson through pioneering UK transnational education in the Philippines through the growing partnerships with De Montfort University and Pearson. Thanks to his efforts, many graduates have earned UK degrees reaping the benefits of top-notch international education in the Philippines.

In a heartfelt send off held in January 2025, it was a good opportunity for Mr. Pecson and SISFU partners to look back at their educational collaboration through the years. In attendance were Dr. Jo Tizon – SISFU President, Mr. Daniel Steel – Senior Director for Strategy and Partnerships, Mr. Rex Wallen Tan – Chief Technology Officer, Southville International School and Colleges, Mr. Leopoldo Gonzaga Anoche – Senior Director Online Blended Learning Programme, Dr. Nancy Lim-De Guia – Executive Vice President Director of Student Support, and Ms. Zheela P. Montecillo, Registrar and HRMD Head.

We wish Mr. Pecson all the best and more power as he takes his career to new heights in the United Kingdom. SISFU is proud of all that you have accomplished and looks forward to more things to come in your international journey towards educational partnerships.
