We believe we're the best in the business at what we do, but don’t just take our word for it. Hear from some of the students, teachers, parents and SMT who have worked or travelled with Global Action...
I expected to learn a lot and we did. Expected pupils to engage, be inspired, challenged, shaken out of their comfort zones - most were at some point although this trip will probably affect them for the future too in ways yet unknown.
The most important experience was developing students' awareness of the bigger global picture and seeing them grow as people.
5 days in Geneva would be an amazing experience for any 17-18 year old. But this trip was truly amazing - it opened up their eyes to life and what really goes on. My daughter loved every part of the trip, learnt loads, and would love to go and live in Geneva now!
We are so happy with how the trip went and know that it has fundamentally affected the girls, with many now wanting to develop their careers in human rights, poverty reduction and development which is fantastic. I think the expedition definitely opened hearts and minds.
It was all important but challenging kids about the real-world problems and the complexity of addressing these was the single most important thing.
As I want to study veterinary medicine at university, my experience working with the turtles will help me massively and was great work experience.
