What is a World Challenge?

Introduce your students to a completely different kind of classroom and you too can gain the benefit of travelling to an awe-inspiring destination and what’s more, it’s for free for you!

As the leading provider of developmental expeditions for schools, World Challenge is renowned for creating the very best in bespoke school expeditions since 1987. World Challenge’s life changing educational expedition programmes lasting up to 22 months transform over 5,000 children a year into young adults. The World Challenge Programme is often described as the most powerful team building experience a young person can take part in, developing valuable life skills such as leadership, communication, risk management and money management. It’s not just an amazing experience in another country (over 70 destinations) with rewarding community projects, but a whole developmental journey that starts long before students step on a plane.

What teachers think...

"The students have come to understand that their 'world' is not the only one on the planet; that there is something worthy in helping others simply for the sake of it, but also a privilege. They can now face obstacles and realize that there are ways of getting past them that are not always obvious, but that obstacles are also opportunities." Jeff Pelling, Teacher on the Andes and Amazon expedition The Marlborough School
