Your Curriculum

For almost 25 years World Challenge has been at the forefront of devising educational expedition programmes which teach life skills and expand minds outside the classroom walls. We enable students to become successful learners, confident individuals and responsible global citizens all while having the time of their lives. Our hand-crafted expedition itineraries foster team spirit and leadership skills and allow students to develop a range of skills and competencies in a challenging and global environment. Our well-publicised ethos of Challenge, Participation and Environment is as relevant today as when it was originally coined.

The original school expedition company

World Challenge is determined to remain the leading provider of educational and developmental overseas expeditions for school students. This page outlines how our World Challenge products support the ideals and best practices of international education...

Our Expedition Programmes and World Challenge Weeks suit International Schools following any of the common curriculum platforms. We’re fully aligned to the ethos of the International Baccalaureate and offer a springboard for fulfilling the Creativity, Action and Service and Extended Essay elements of the IB Diploma Programme.

Also, our content rich Programme covers all eight Cross Curriculum Dimensions of the British National Curriculum, the Personal Learning and Thinking Skills Framework as well as Learning Outside the Classroom. In addition, our expeditions can support the delivery of the expedition element of the International Award and can enable students to earn up to 70 UCAS points and an ASDAN Universities Award.

Above all, we enable students to become successful learners, confident individuals and responsible global citizens all while having the time of their lives but without burdening busy school staff.
