This Teacher Training Program in Vanuatu is designed for educators who want to make a meaningful impact while gaining valuable professional experience. Across 10 days, participants work in local schools in Port Vila, collaborating with local teachers and delivering classroom support. The experience culminates in a Professional Development workshop led by your group for local educators.

Outside of the school placement, you'll explore the beautiful natural and cultural highlights of Vanuatu, including the stunning Blue Lagoon, waterfalls, and remote island beaches. The trip combines professional learning, cultural immersion, and a deep sense of purpose — all in a supportive, well-organised environment.

This experience is part of our Teacher Training Program, designed for educators who want to be fully immersed in a local school setting, with a strong focus on sharing professional practice.

 Arrive in Port Vila and settle into your seaside accommodation. Meet your team leader and fellow participants, and take part in a welcome briefing and dinner to prepare for the week ahead. 

Spend five days in a local school, working alongside a partner teacher to support classroom learning and share teaching strategies. Mornings are focused on observing, co-teaching, and gradually leading lessons, while afternoons allow time for reflection, planning, or exploring the community.

This placement offers a unique opportunity to immerse yourself in the local education system, build meaningful relationships, and contribute to professional learning in a supportive, culturally respectful way. You’ll be guided throughout by a Global Teacher team leader and local partners, ensuring a smooth and rewarding experience.

 Enjoy a full-day cultural and adventure experience on Lelepa Island. Snorkel, kayak, explore local caves, and relax on white-sand beaches. 

Explore the natural beauty of Efate, including the Blue Lagoon, waterfalls, and a visit to a traditional Ni-Vanuatu village. 

As a team, we come together to plan and deliver a full day of professional development for local teachers. Drawing on our combined experience and strengths, we run interactive workshops focused on practical strategies, inclusive teaching, and student engagement — tailored to the local context.

It’s a powerful day of connection and learning, where we’re able to support and uplift local educators while growing in confidence and collaboration as a group.

After breakfast, you’ll be transferred to the airport for your flight home — or, if you're not quite ready to leave, you're welcome to continue exploring the island at your own pace.
