This assignment is one of four, under the Provincial Education Division of government, Secondary Inspectors unit, designed to assist local teachers and build the capacity of the high schools in the province. High Schools in PNG cater for students in Grade 7 to 10 and secondary schools Grade 9 to 12.
The volunteer will be required to run teacher training workshops for local English teachers. Some travel to outlying schools will be involved and in some cases the volunteer may need to travel by boat or public motor vehicle. The school day starts at 7:30 - 8:00 and finishes around 1:00 or 2:00 pm - some schools due to the limited number of classrooms operate a two shift system with children attending either morning or afternoon school. This is a two-year assignment and accommodation will be provided in Kokopo, on the western side of Blanche Bay.
