<\/span>How School Trips Benefit Teachers’ Professional Development<\/span><\/h2>\n\n\n\n

<\/span>If you go with a brilliant provider, school trips are incredibly rewarding experiences, for both teachers and students. In fact, teachers recently said that school trips were in the top 5 perks of the job \u2013 even above blowing things up! School trips are also a chance for teachers to work on professional development, build their CV, and demonstrate hireable qualities:<\/span><\/h3>\n\n\n\n

<\/span>1) Planning & Organisational Skills<\/span><\/h4>\n\n\n\n

School trips give you the chance to demonstrate your organisational skills. You\u2019ll be responsible for making sure every student has got their passport, papers and everything else they need. It\u2019s also important that you carry round copies of their papers, medication, and a whole host of other essentials. It\u2019s a challenge \u2013 but anyone hiring or promoting you will know that, and you\u2019ll look all the better for it.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

<\/span>2) Leadership Qualities<\/span><\/h4>\n\n\n\n

Whether you\u2019re leading the school trip or not, this is a way to build on your leadership skills. Coordinating a school trip takes effective time management, authority and grit. You\u2019ll be in charge of several students at a time, and you\u2019ll also be delegating to parent volunteers.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

<\/span>3) The Students<\/span><\/h4>\n\n\n\n

Probably the most important, this is your chance to really change your students\u2019 perspectives. Open their eyes to the real-world implications of the subjects they\u2019re studying. They\u2019ve learned about natural disasters all year \u2013 now show them how it\u2019s affected real people\u2019s lives in Japan. They\u2019ve been learning French in the classroom \u2013 now it\u2019s time to put it into practice in Paris. An expertly constructed school trip will be incredibly influential in improving your students\u2019 knowledge and skills, as well as motivating them to dig deeper.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

<\/span>4) Go on your own Learning Adventure<\/span><\/h4>\n\n\n\n

A quote any Tarzan\/Genesis\/Phil Collins fans will recognise, \u201cin learning you will teach, and in teaching you will learn.\u201d Find a school trip that will give you more insight into your subject, too. A native French language teacher? Try a lesson in French slang and discover a whole other side to your language. A music teacher who loves going to classical music concerts? Switch it up with South Korea\u2019s Pansori, a traditional genre of musical storytelling with singing and drumming.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

But remember, school trips are also an opportunity for teachers to have fun. Spend time with your fellow colleagues and marvel at incredible sights. That\u2019s why we think it\u2019s important to pick a school trip provider<\/a> that puts in all the legwork for you.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
