HOW A TRIP WORKS

We work closely with each school to design an itinerary and trip curriculum that conforms to the school’s needs and objectives.

We require that at least one faculty member participates in the trip alongside the students. We want educators as involved as possible in each trip in order to impact the larger school community and ensure that learning continues after the trip ends.

There is one free teacher for every group of ten paying students. There are two free teachers with a group of 15 paying students. Other teacher and school incentives are available upon request.

We want faculty to get as involved as possible in facilitating the global issues and leadership curriculum during the trip. The faculty will meet the World Leadership School instructor several months before the trip to begin the curriculum planning process.

Program fees vary according to country, itinerary and group size. As a general rule of thumb, a 10-day trip ranges from $1,400 - $1,900 per student, excluding airfare. A 21-day trip ranges from $2,500 - $2,900 per student, excluding airfare.

• Donation for community project. We ask that each student and teacher raise between $100 and $250, which will be donated directly to the project they are working on. We believe that students and teachers feel a greater investment in a project when they have worked to raise money for it. The World Leadership School helps schools develop innovative fundraising ideas.
