VSO
Over 115 million children of primary school age are not enrolled in school. You could help by working with VSO to train and inspire teachers from around the world.

VSO works through volunteers to help children in the world's poorest countries get the education they desperately need. It's a huge challenge as over 115 million children of primary school age are not enrolled in school and one-third of those enrolled in school fail to complete five years of schooling, the minimum required for basic literacy

Primary education is the only formal education many children receive and yet in some poor countries there simply aren't enough properly trained teachers for all the children who need them. As a volunteer with VSO, teachers can help by training their teachers. Working in an in-service or pre-service environment, primary volunteers help to increase the repertoire of teaching techniques available to their colleagues and inspire them to improve the quality of their lessons.

VSO are now looking for primary teachers to volunteer for a year - though they can of course stay for longer if they wish.

A VSO placement is an excellent CPD opportunity and has recently been endorsed as such by five teaching unions, the GTC for England, the DfES and almost 60 LEAs. Additionally, the new VSO ‘Guide to Sabbaticals in Education’ provides practical advice to help teachers who are considering applying as VSO volunteers.
