	This placement would suit... confident, motivated individuals with a love of children and a desire to immerse themselves in the Ghanaian way of life. Classes may sometimes be big but two things are guaranteed to be bigger - the impact you make, and the reward you feel. You will be working in schools alongside teachers to guide students through difficult aspects of their syllabus. You will soon see the impact you can make across different age-groups and subject areas. Ghanaian schools operate at three key stages and there are a number of different levels at which you can teach: Senior Secondary School, Junior Secondary School and Nursery. With the younger children, you will have the opportunity to teach English as a foreign language, helping your students develop their fluency and conversational confidence. For the older children, English skills are stronger so there will be ample opportunity to teach a broad range of subjects. The current syllabus covers English Language, English Literature, Maths, Science, French, IT, RE, Design, Construction and Agricultural Studies. There are also opportunities to teach drama, journalism or PE. Furthermore, you will have a chance to teach extracurricular activities of your own choice. There are countless opportunities to take advantage of and you will leave your school having had a truly eye-opening experience.
