Summary
GLE Junior is a foundational course in leadership and global systems for students aged 13–15.
As a bespoke course designed specifically for younger teens it has a unique identity, but also serves as a good stepping stone to the senior GLE programme and a UWC education at one of the UWC colleges.
The focus is on play-based systems learning, nature connection, and building self-confidence through creativity and collaboration.
As a team of 3, you will bridge the gap between experiential activity leader and teacher, using gamified learning and storytelling to introduce younger teens to systems thinking, global perspectives, and teambuilding.
The Instructor role requires high energy and a developmental mindset.
The period of work will be:

Pre-Course: attendance at 2x virtual planning meetings (June/July)
